AASHTO UGFR-1, Unlocking Freight (July 2010), is the second part of the Transportation Reboot series, Restarting America's Most Essential Operating System. The report presents the case for capacity to unlock gridlock, generate jobs, deliver freight, and connect communities, with a freight-specific focus. It analyzes the condition of the national freight system, drawing on the AASHTO Freight Transportation Bottom Line reports and on National Cooperative Highway Research Program research on future options for the Interstate system. The analysis covers highways, railroads, ports, waterways, and airports and the investments they require. Material cited includes estimates of the capacity increases needed to handle projected freight growth. Policymakers and transportation program leaders can use the report in discussions of federal authorization and investment needs.
