The objectives of this project were to • Investigate, identify, and report on high-priority, highpayoff improvements in freight-demand models and other analysis tools; • Conduct research on several of these improvements; and • Develop a guidebook to assist model developers in implementing freight transportation planning, including these improvements. The report is organized as follows: • Chapter 2 -- Current Needs and Practices of states and MPOs in developing and applying freight models and analytical tools; • Chapter 3 -- Research to Fill Critical Gaps lists the gaps developed from Section 2 and conducting additional research to fill three of those gaps; and • Chapter 4 -- Guidebook outlines the steps that can be followed to prepare freight forecasts.
