In recent years, there has been a concerted effort to incorporate freight models in to the transportation planning models. Despite these efforts, Freight planning models however are still in their infancy and lag behind considerably in comparison to passenger planning models. Several factors including complexity of freight movements, lack of appropriate data, and lack of qualified staff by planning agencies are advanced in the literature as the main impedance to freight travel demand modeling. An urban truck freight planning model will be developed and applied to a medium-sized MPO as the case study. This presentation is an update on current modeling efforts to develop a freight planning model for the Fargo-Moorhead metropolitan area.
