| 摘要： | This study is grounded on the premise that there is one transportation system with many components. Public debates often pit one mode against another mode, such as: automobiles vs. transit, buses vs. trains, walking vs. driving, and freight vs. passenger. However, the reality is that while some people may predominately use one mode, the public should be concerned with all modes that serve communities. The U.S. Department of Transportation is a multimodal agency but the massive nature of the organization has resulted in a structure where various administrations, based on modes, typically focus on their own domain. Local government and metropolitan planning organizations (MPOs) often have a multimodal approach when it comes to passenger transportation, but freight and passenger interest groups and stakeholders rarely collaborate on unified transportation plans that span both. For example, in South Florida, the airports, ports and transit agencies are all located in close physical proximity, but a tourist arriving at one of the three international airports is not able to easily connect to one of the three major cruise ports utilizing regional transit. The same is true in many other port cities, including New Orleans, which is a focus of this study. The aim of this study is to examine the extent that freight and passenger transportation planning overlap within the context of transit-oriented developments (TODs) near ports. This study also includes a case study of New Orleans. The following research questions explore the geographic connections between fixed-route transit stations, TODs, and their proximity to major ports across the United States. The study applied a TOD-typology, developed and applied in other studies (Renne, Tolford, Hamidi, & Ewing, 2016) to examine the transportation, population and economic characteristics of station areas near ports. |
