| Abstract | Section 1106(d) of the Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century (TEA-21) directed the Secretary to conduct a review of the National Highway System (NHS) freight connectors that serve seaports, airports, and major intermodal terminals and report to Congress by June 9, 2000. The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) conducted this study with the following objectives: (1) evaluate the condition of NHS connectors to major freight intermodal terminals; (2) review improvements and investments made or programmed for these connectors; and (3) identify impediments and options to making improvements to the intermodal freight connectors. NHS freight connectors are the public roads leading to major intermodal terminals. This report discusses the study and its findings. |
