Description:

This project was initiated in order to develop a model/tool that could help the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) and other transportation planners estimate and assess changes in freight traffic flow impacts on the Texas Highway Freight Network (THFN) much more quickly than conducting a Statewide Analysis Model run. The goal was to produce a tool that could assess proposed change scenarios in a timely manner to answer queries by elected officials, members of the Texas Transportation Commission, TxDOT administration, and other transportation system stakeholders regarding the introduction of new freight generators or shifting of existing freight facilities/employees to new locations. The key means of doing so was to leverage the availability of new freight-based, economic databases and the use of advanced data analysis methods that were just becoming available at the outset of the project.
