Abstract DDOT asked the Volpe National Transportation Systems Center (Volpe) to conduct an analysis of existing truck traffic conditions in the District, successful truck management practices from other areas, stakeholder interests and opinions, and security concerns. Using this background information, Volpe has developed a set of recommendations for improved truck management in the District, including creating officially-designated truck routes, adding a Motor Carrier Office (MCO) within DDOT that would coordinate all motor carrier management issues, and provide better on- and off-street loading/unloading facilities through a combination of parking rule changes, parking enforcement, and zoning rules regarding off-street loading docks.
