Abstract:

The main objective of this project is to support Texas Department of Transportation's (TxDOT’s) decision-making by predicting the network-wide travel impacts of proposed or considered freight corridor projects and estimating their costs and economic benefits to the state. Chapter 2 of this report provides an overview of the framework created under this study and the modeling tools used to conduct the analysis. Following this overview, Chapter 3 describes in detail each scenario analyzed using the framework and tools presented in Chapter 2, with their predicted travel impact to the statewide roadway network and estimated economic benefits. Based on these analyses, some recommendations that could assist TxDOT in selecting or comparing alternative projects/policies are developed and presented in Chapter 4.
