Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: " TRB's second Strategic Highway Research Program (SHRP 2) Report S2-C20-RR-1: Freight Demand Modeling and Data Improvement documents the state of the practice for freight demand modeling. The report also explores the fundamental changes in freight modeling, and data and data collection that could help public and private sector decision-makers make better and more informed decisions. SHRP 2 Capacity Project C20, which produced Report S2-C20-RR-1, also produced the following items: A Freight Demand Modeling and Data Improvement Strategic Plan, which outlines seven strategic objectives that are designed to serve as the basis for future innovation in freight travel demand forecasting and data, and to guide both near- and long-term implementation: A speaker's kit, which is intended to be a "starter" set of materials for use in presenting the freight modeling and data improvement strategic plan to a group of interested professionals; and; A 2010 Innovations in Freight Demand Modeling and Data Symposium " -- publisher's description

This book was released on 2003 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is well known that better freight forecasting models and data are needed, but the literature does not clearly indicate which components of the modeling methodology are most in need of improvement, which is a critical need in an era of limited research budgets. This effort sought to identify those components using a logistics-driven approach as a starting point. The research began by examining other states' responses to freight planning legislation. A survey was sent to 47 states to determine the types of freight planning and freight modeling that occur and to understand the current data available and data needs. Research was conducted to gather information on how the supply chain functions and how logistics decisions regarding supply chain management are made. Sample supply chains were created for a variety of commodities, and mode choice was related to the behavioral aspects of the supply chain's logistics system. Once the mode was determined, the route assignment could be determined based on the accessible freight infrastructure. It was found that not all elements of the freight modeling methodology are equally weak: indeed, trip attraction components for the production of raw materials and the dissemination of these materials from the manufacturing plant, whether to the consumer (in a traditional push system) or to a just-in-time distribution center (in the newer pull system) are adequately developed in practice. However, it is critical that future research address the following needs, listed in order of descending priority: (1) the mode choice component for delineating travel by air, truck, rail, water, or a combination thereof; (2) trip attraction equations for intermodal facilities that are used when manufacturing plants outsource key components rather than creating all components in-house, and (3) trip attraction equations for representing the flow of goods from distribution centers to the consumer.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Provides a preliminary examination of whether shippers of domestic surface freight pay the full social costs of the services that they use. This study is intended not to provide definitive answers as to whether shippers pay their full social costs, but rather to determine the feasibility of making such estimates.
