| Abstract | This fifth "Transportation Statistics Annual Report" assesses the nation's transportation system and the state of transportation statistics. The report is mandated by Congress [49 U.S.C. 111(j)] and is presented in two parts. Part I, The State of the Transportation System, in the first four chapters examines the state of the transportation system, its economic impacts, and unintended consequences for safety, energy, and the environment, and in the fifth chapter summarizes the quality of information underlying this assessment. Part II, Long-Distance Travel and Freight Movement, in the sixth and seventh chapters highlights the importance of the national transportation network through a discussion of the statistics on long-distance travel and nonlocal freight shipments. |
