Abstract:Transportation plays a vital role in the American economy: it makes economic activity possible, and serves as a major economic activity in its own right.

The report has eight chapters: - Chapter 1 introduces the Transportation Services Index, a monthly summary of freight and passenger movement. - Chapter 2 explains what transportation contributes to the American economy. - Chapter 3 examines the costs that households and businesses pay for transportation. - Chapter 4 analyzes transportation-related employment. - Chapter 5 explains and examines trends in transportation productivity. - Chapter 6 analyzes household spending on transportation goods and services. - Chapter 7 examines government transportation spending and revenue. - Chapter 8 discusses the value of transportation. Each chapter uses the latest data available at the time of publication.
