This study evaluates that opportunity on four potential traffic lanes as business case studies for the short-sea shipping concept in order to identify the potential for market viability of such services. The four domestic U.S. corridors selected on the basis of their respective volumes of potentially divertible truck traffic and geographic diversity were the following: Gulf to/from Atlantic Coast Corridor between the ports of Beaumont, TX and Camden, NJ; Atlantic Coast Corridor between the ports of Port Canaveral, FL and New Haven, CT; Pacific Coast Corridor between the ports of San Diego and Oakland, CA, and Astoria, OR; Great Lakes Corridor between the ports of Milwaukee, WI and Muskegon, MI. |
