| Abstract | FHWA, in cooperation with Transport Canada and the Mexican Secretariat of Transportation and Communications, developed U.S.-Canada and U.S.-Mexico projections of future freight and passenger volumes over the next 30 years (2015 – 2045) from a North American framework and a regional border perspective. The study developed national macro-level data projections between the U.S. and Canada and the U.S. and Mexico borders and regional micro-level data projections along and within the border regions of the U.S. The planning scenarios and data projections are displayed in a visualization tool compatible with the FHWA Office of Planning, Environment, and Realty GIS Planning Tool (HEPGIS). |
