Guidebook for Assessing Evolving International Container Chassis Supply Models | NCFRP Report 20 | 59 Implications of Evolving Chassis Supply Models for Public Policy and Planning Organizations Key Messages From an operational perspective, public agencies have limited direct influence over how chassis supply models will evolve -- this will largely be determined commercially among supply chain actors. Nevertheless, the implications of consequence to public policy and planning organizations include the potential for increased truck movements on roads to reposition, pick up, or drop off chassis; greater pressures on intermodal connectors, and increased land footprint requirements for storage.
