摘要: |
The study focuses on development of models for heavy truck movements on external road networks connecting with Florida seaports. The objective of phase-I- of the study is to develop truck trip production and attraction models for the Port of Miami. Using regression analysis, it was found that the most significant parameters influencing truck trips were the daily imported/exported number of trailers/containers at the port and the particular day of the week. Days of the week were grouped together into three groups for each model and all possible scenarios were investigated to produce the best statistical fit truck trip production/attraction models. Preliminary analyses of various sources of data revealed that manually recorded gate pass cards, maintained by the Port of Miami, were the most accurate and detailed source of truck movements at the port. |
