  1. Freight Modeling in Florida …….the Teamwork Approach A Presentation to the Federal Highway Administration By the State of Florida Department of Transportation

  2. Freight Modeling Partnering Tools …… an important decision Tools for Freight Modeling We are here ……and RELAXING McCullough:

  3. Building a Modeling TEAM McCullough: The Model Task Force is a grou ……..not appointed by Department procedure Thanks How Modeling grew in Florida

  4. Florida had 15 Urban Areas in 1980 coming soon FIHS

  5. 25 Urban Areas in 1990 FIHS • Florida models • 25 Urban

  6. 7 Non-Urban Areas have Models McCullough: The emerging urban areas will already have model when they too become designated urban area FIHS • Florida models • 25 Urban • 7 Non-Urban

  7. Models are Joined to Form Regional Models Orlando 3 North Central Treasure Coast Tampa Bay Southwest Southeast FIHS • Florida models • 25 Urban • 7 Non-Urban • 6 Regional

  8. Florida also has a Statewide Model FIHS • Florida models • 25 Urban • 7 Non-Urban • 6 Regional • 1 Statewide

  9. Building a Modeling Team How Models developed over time Organization Bridging the Policy/Technical gap Goods Movement & Freight Models Sharing Information McCullough: The Model Task Force is a grou ……..not appointed by Department procedure Thanks

  10. HOW ORGANIZED CENTRALOFFICE Click here for decentralization District 1 5 MPOs McCullough: District 2 2 MPOs District 3 4 MPOs District 4 5 MPOs CENTRALOFFICE District 5 4 MPOs District 6 1 MPO District 7 4 MPOs

  11. Building a Modeling TEAM McCullough: The Model Task Force is a grou ……..not appointed by Department procedure Thanks Bridging the Policy/Technical gap

TEAM BUILDING POLICY POLICY Assumes technical support Assumes policy support MANAGEMENT MANAGEMENT TECHNICAL TECHNICAL Florida Model Task Force Task Force Sub-committees Regional User Groups MPO Modelers University Research Centers FHWA (Local & National) Consultants Central Office support State Transportation Planner Transportation Directors Planning Managers MPOAC (25 MPO’s) Regional Planning Councils FHWA (Local & National) Central Office Support The central office functionsas the TEAM Facilitator“Bridging the GAP”

  14. Factors Affecting Freight Demand Freight Logistics Macro-Economic Factors Socio-Economic Dynamics Demographic Trends Direct Factors Freight Demand Cost and Level-of-Service Technological Advancements Indirect Factors Transport Infrastructure Government Policy

  15. Goods Movement Modeling vs.Truck Modeling • Goods Movement Modeling • Macroeconomic based commodity analyses • Multi-modal by nature • Broad brush data, analyses and assumptions • Truck Modeling • Trip based analysis • Can be multi-modal, but most typically truck only • Local data targeting site level analyses

  16. 50-200 MILES If most of the TRUCKS make short trips why worry about the long roads (FIHS) >200 MILES 5% 20% <50 MILES 75% % Truck Trips

  17. Because…. 5% of the Trucks drive 50% of the Miles (50% of VMT)

  18. Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) Small Trucks Big Trucks

  19. That’s why the FIHS Is so important 3% of the roads carry more than 50% Of the Truck VMT (Vehicle Miles Traveled)

  20. Building Freight Partners (Urban, Regional & Statewide) Urban Truck Models Regional Truck Models Statewide Highway Freight Model • Florida models • 25 Urban • 7 Non-Urban • 6 Regional • 1 Statewide

  21. 50-200 MILES Statewide Highway Freight Model Urban Truck Models Regional Truck Models 5% >200 MILES 20% <50 MILES 75% % Truck Trips
