摘要：	In November 1998, the Subcommittee on Transportation Research and Development (R&D) of the National Science and Technology Council released the first Federal Transportation Technology Plan. The plan presents initial implementation strategies for private-public partnerships, including the initiative for Enhanced Goods and Freight Movement at Domestic and International Gateways, which addresses the need for more flexible, efficient, and seamless freight transportation systems. The partnership has three overall objectives: improve freight mobility at land borders and ports, ensure the diffusion of freight information technologies and networks, and expedite the global flow of goods. The gateways partnership promotes an integrated freight R&D and investment policy and private-public collaboration on large-scale investment projects. This strategic plan outlines the partnership's outcome goals, investment strategies, and anticipated impacts for border gateways. The plan defines four key outcome goals for border gateways: improved facility capacity to reduce congestion at border corridors through application of advanced traffic control systems; improved intermodal access at the border facilities through deployment of automated cargo inspection and clearance systems; improved intermodal connectivity through promotion of an integrated, corridor-level infrastructure investment and planning process; and an enhanced U.S. international competitive position based on facilitation of the transaction processes at the U.S. land borders. For each outcome goal, the plan presents an investment strategy, anticipated impacts, critical technology elements, and case studies. A list of acronyms is appended.
