Majority of freight moves on facilities owned by
State and Local governments
Prior to 1970’s – All interstate transportation subject
to Federal economic regulation
1980s – Deregulation
Aviation Deregulation Act 1978
Motor Carrier Act 1980
Staggers Rail Act 1980
Ocean Shipping Act 1984

Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act (ISTEA)
Added freight as a factor for states and MPOs to consider during their
transportation planning efforts
 
Transportation Equity Act for the 21
st
 Century (TEA-21)
Encouraged states and MPOs to include shippers and freight service
provides in the transportation planning process
 
Safe, Accountable, Flexible, and Efficient Transportation
Equity Act of the 21
st
 Century (SAFETEA-LU)
Works to enhance the freight planning efforts in ISTEA and TEA-21

“The economic competitiveness of our state is
directly linked to how, why and where our
businesses move their goods. Understanding
these freight movements enables us to target
policies and resources at highway, rail, water,
and air corridors that will improve the State’s
competitive position.”

Factors affecting freight demand
Economy 
(volume of goods produced vs. consumed)
Industrial Location Patterns 
(spatial distribution)
Globalization of Business
Just-in-Time (JIT) Inventory Practices 
(Inventory and Production in
sync)
Centralized Warehousing 
(Increased use of 3PLs)
Fuel Prices
Truck Size & Weight Limits 
(Increased payload requires less trips and in
return lowers operating costs)
Congestion
Technology

Data Sources (many available….sort of! 
)
Carload Waybill Sample
Commodity Flow Survey (CFS)
Freight Analysis Framework (FAF)
LTL Commodity and Market Flow Database
National Transportation Statistics (NTS)
Limitations
Emphasis toward national and statewide
Frequency of data
Potential bias due to survey methods, unreliable
estimates, or lack of freight modal coverage
