  2. SCAG Comprehensive Regional Goods Movement Plan and Implementation Strategy Project Tasks Task 1: Administration and Management Task 2: Refined Public Outreach Strategy Task 3: Evaluate and Recommend Improvements to the SCAG HDT Model Task 4: Truck Trip Data Collection and Analysis Task 5: Needs Assessment of Industrial/Warehouse and Intermodal Facilities Task 6: HDT Model Enhancement and Model Validation Task 7: Evaluation of the Goods Movement Element of the 2008 RTP Task 8: New Technology Alternatives for Line-Haul Freight Task 9: Recommendations for Enhancing the Regional Goods Movement System Task 10: Environmental Mitigation Plan Task 11: Financing and Implementation Plan Task 12: Final Report

  3. Key Considerations for Plan Development • Need to better understand international versus domestic freight activities (including local distribution and service truck activities) • Ability to link secondary port trips to the warehousing analysis • Evaluate Regional Freight Corridor System for Clean Technology Truck lanes application • Including consideration for local truck usage • Need to understand market needs when analyzing alternative goods movement technology systems • Land use policy needs to be considered when evaluating warehousing projections and resulting truck traffic • Understand which industries benefit from improvements

  4. HDT Model Enhancements & Data Program Internal Model • Trip Generation • Validate and re-estimate trip rates using Establishment Surveys and GPS data • Trip Distribution • Develop “trip purpose” by linking land uses in trip interchange networks • Estimate new gravity model parameters for each land use interchange • Used GPS data

  5. HDT Model Enhancements & Data Program External Model • Trip Generation/Distribution • Replace ITMS commodity flow database with TRANSEARCH database Special Generator Model – Port model and the intermodal model • Update inputs for base year and forecast year to port Quick Trip model • Develop linkage between “primary” port trips and secondary port trips • Used Supply Chain/Shipper-receiver surveys and Warehouse Data • Conducted Port Terminal Gate Surveys to obtain OD pattern by truck type

  6. Data Benefits Relative to Policy Needs • New data provided trip rates that were statistically valid, resulting in a robust internal truck trip generation model • A combination of the establishment surveys and GPS data-enabled coverage of critical gaps in data required to update the internal truck trip generation model • Also served as a tool to cross-check trip rates that were derived from the two sources – establishment surveys and GPS data • Establishment surveys proved to be a cost effective means of collecting trip generation data with high accuracy and response rates

  7. Occupied Warehouse in the SCAG Region

  8. Warehouse Existing Conditions and Future Needs • A number of factors could alter future demand • Increased use of import warehouses increases demand • Warehouse space utilization efficiency gains reduce demand • More rapid inventory turns reduce demand (but increase transportation system demand) • Need to monitor future developments Warehousing Demand and Shortfall (2035) (million sq. ft.)

  9. Warehouse Square Footagealong SR-60 (5-mile buffer) 9

  10. Freight Corridor System, Port Trucks, and Logistics Facilities

  11. Rising Truck Volumes in the Region Truck Traffic Today (SR-60)

  12. Truck Bottleneck Relief Strategy • Truck congestion in urban areas within the region resulted in $2.6 billion in costs from wasted labor and fuel • Strategy identified programmed projects and new projects that would address 50 top truck bottlenecks in the region

  13. Growing Volumes Trucks Trains

  14. Regional Rail Market Splits • Freight rail traffic growth in the region is dominated by port-related intermodal cargo • Domestic intermodal rail is still important to many industries’ supply chains • Impacts types and locations of terminals and transload facilities
