NCHRP Synthesis 20-05/Topic 36-10 [Final (Synthesis)]

Impact of Intermodal Freight Terminals Closures
[ NCHRP 20-05 (Synthesis of Information Related to Highway Practices) ]

  Project Data
Staff Responsibility: Donna L. Vlasak
Comments: Withdrawn
Fiscal Year: 2004

This synthesis was to report on the closing of intermodal truck-rail freight terminals across the U.S. Communication and planning processes that were implemented before, during, and after the closures will be documented and successful practice in mitigating the impacts resulting from the eventual mode shifts from rail to truck will also be investigated. State DOTs, local MPOs, and regional economic development authorities may be contacted for information. The topic experienced repeated adminstrative problems. As it is now out of phase with the rest of the 36-00 topics, it has been withdrawn, with the concurrence of the 20-05 oversight committee.
