| 摘要： | This report examines Texas dray operations of interest to TxDOT planners. Chapter 1 provides background to the study and summarizes an earlier study report. Chapter 2 reports on a large drayage driver survey conducted at the Union Pacific Englewood intermodal terminal in Houston. Chapter 3 moves the study to the southern border and estimates annual dray vehicle miles of travel (VMT) for those dray vehicles that crossed the border in a northbound direction at the McAllen/Pharr, Laredo, and El Paso gateways in 2007. Chapter 4 stays in Laredo but moves to the Union Pacific intermodal terminal where a driver survey was conducted on August 11 and 12, 2008, to gain insight into the origins and destinations of containers coming into and out of the terminal. Chapter 5 measures dray impacts created by the movement of containers from Port of Houston Authority (POHA) terminals on the Houston highway network. The level of service (LOS) on the network serving the port is determined, using different volumes of dray vehicles. It also reports output from the EPA DrayFLEET emissions and activity model developed by the Tioga Group. Chapter 6 identifies potential strategies to mitigate adverse impacts associated with dray operations. The strategies cover terminal operations, dray fleet technologies, reducing interactions with other highway users, and identifying opportunities to divert dray traffic to other modes. Finally, Chapter 7 presents the conclusions and recommendations of the study. |
