| 摘要： | This guidebook is designed to answer three basic questions: 1. Why is the Texas Department of Transportation interested in moving more cargo by water 2. What are the potential benefits of moving more cargo by water 3. What specific steps can TxDOT or the State of Texas take to encourage more waterborne freight movements. It describes the need for increased utilization of marine freight options, summarizes what other Gulf states are doing, looks at the challenges involved, describes the potential benefits of increasing the utilization of marine freight options, and recommends several steps TxDOT could pursue in the short term to encourage more waterborne shipments along the coast. A chapter of Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) regarding Short Sea Shipping or Marine Highways is included for readers who do not regularly deal with marine transportation issues. / Supplementary Notes: Sponsored by Texas Dept. of Transportation, Austin.
