Abstract:This project reviews MAFC state freight plans and current planning efforts and provides a catalogue of state practices, data and analysis techniques, stakeholder involvement and other planning elements. The project also identifies where states share similar goals and common priority corridors across borders, and where they can leverage a regional approach to freight planning. Freight planning best practices across the region are also identified. The federal recommendations and guidelines on freight planning are reviewed as well. The objectives of the research are to: maximize collaborative freight planning and sharing of best practices, ensure the MAASTO freight perspectives are reflected in national freight planning, and provide a better understanding of how greater collaboration can improve regional and state transportation development as well as increase logistics and economic development.
