| Abstract | This report evaluates the applicability, Federal policy implications, and possible public and private sector roles related to peak pricing strategies at ports and intermodal facilities in the U.S. A number of ports and intermodal terminals are considering peak-period truck pricing strategies modeled on the Ports of Long Beach and Los Angeles PierPASS OffPeak program to: 1) reduce peak-period congestion; 2) improve terminal operating efficiencies; 3) reduce truck wait and idle times; 4) improve air quality; and 5) lessen community impacts. This report presents a detailed discussion of the results from this evaluation. |
