| 摘要： | The objective of NCFRP Project 39: Making Trucks Count is to suggest innovative approaches to obtain and make publicly available comprehensive truck-activity data. To fulfill this objective, the research team reviewed the current state of truck-activity data and assessed data issues and limitations to determine critical gaps. Based on this review, the team proposed strategies for obtaining more comprehensive truck-activity data and conducted feasibility reviews of these techniques. After feedback from the project oversight panel, the research team then provided in-depth implementation strategies for the three most promising strategies. The research methods for this study included literature reviews, dataset evaluations, and key informant interviews. Implementing a national freight policy, as required by the Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act (MAP-21), requires strategic planning and data. MAP-21 also focuses directly on expanding the use and application of performance measures and performance management, for which better freight data will be critical. Although such planning and data must be multimodal, documenting trucking activity will be most important: trucking comprises about 70 percent of total tonnage and value shipped in the United States, and is growing (U.S. Bureau of the Census Commodity Flow Survey, 2007). Effective policy making will require information to answer such questions as the following: |
