Abstract:

The purpose of this study is to investigate the current state of freight on the Interstate system, determine the attitude of state DOTs towards Interstate freight, and suggest options for freight transport and the future of the Interstate system. This study is based on a comprehensive literature review and surveys of state departments of transportation. For this study, four different sources were used to gather current state DOT attitudes towards the Interstate system: an AASHTO survey and conference results, TRB's state visit program, a self-conducted UVA survey, and literature on current state initiatives. The research demonstrates that state DOTs are concerned about congestion and freight flows on the Interstate system.
