Abstract:

In the year 2000 the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) commissioned a research project (0-4083) on the growth of inland ports along transportation corridors in Texas and the United States. This project was staffed by a multi-institutional team comprising Jolanda Prozzi (CTR-UT), John McCray (UTSA), and Russell Henk (TTI), and was supervised by Robert Harrison (CTR-UT). Judy Friesenhahn, P.E. (San Antonio) as the Project Director and the Project Coordinator was Luis Ramirez, P.E. (District Engineer at Laredo). Upon completion, the research was selected as a 2002 TxDOT’s Top Research Innovations and Findings Award winner. As part of the study, CTR, TTI and UTSA researchers developed an “Inland Port Transportation Evaluation Guide.” The guide provides TxDOT planners with a planning and evaluation tool that can be used when local officials and developers approach TxDOT districts for assistance in the possible development of an inland port. The guide can also be given to potential developers and local officials so that they better understand TxDOT’s procedures and data requirements. To increase the guide’s usage and effectiveness, a follow-up implementation project was approved for FY04 and undertaken by CTR. The scope of the implementation project included training of district and metropolitan planning organization (MPO) personnel on (1) the functions of inland ports and (2) use of the guide as an evaluation tool. A second component of the implementation project was an assessment of the guide’s effectiveness by using the West Texas Odessa District as an actual case study. The implementation project began in September 2003, and was completed in August 2004.
