| 摘要： | Congestion along key Texas highway corridors has continued to rise in recent years due to increases in usage by both passenger and freight vehicles. In addition to building new lane miles, the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) is attempting to manage the growth in total demand for roadway space and so mitigate congestion. Significant improvements in overall traffic flows could be achieved by diverting even a modest share of the intermodal cargo currently traveling over highway corridors to alternative modes. However, since the freight industry is privately controlled, there is comparatively little known about the impact of intermodal freight movements on traffic within the state. Researcher objectives in project 0-4410 were to investigate how intermodal containers move throughout the state, examine options for diverting a percentage of these containers from highways to other modes, display available data using a GIS platform, and evaluate the potential for diverting containerized traffic. |
