Using Archived Truck GPS Data for Freight Performance Analysis on I-94/I-90 from the Twin Cities to Chicago
Interstate 94 is a key freight corridor for goods transportation between Minneapolis and Chicago. This project utilized the Freight Performance Measure (FPM) data and information from the American Transportation Research Institute (ATRI) to study the I-94/I-90 freight corridor. Freight performance was evaluated and analyzed to compare truck travel time with respect to duration, reliability, and seasonal variation. This data analysis process can be used for freight transportation planning and decision-making and potentially will be scalable for nationwide deployment and implementation on the country’s significant freight corridors.
