2 Objectives of this presentation  Present Maryland’s framework for a freight performance measurement system  Explain the approach and process in building the system  Highlight successes  Outline the continuation plan

3 Maryland Freight System  Port of Baltimore and Port of Salisbury  Two Class I Railroads – CSX - National Gateway Norfolk Southern – Crescent Corridor  Major highway freight corridors – I-95 and I-81 north-south I-70 and I-68 east-west  Three airports

4 Department structure Maryland Department of Transportation Maryland Transit Administration Maryland Motor Vehicle Administration Maryland State Highway Administration Maryland Port Administration Maryland Aviation Administration Maryland Transportation Authority

5 Guiding documents  Maryland Transportation Plan  Annual Attainment Report  Statewide Freight Plan

6 Process – the approach  Communication  Collaboration  Cooperation

7 Process – gathered measures  Collected measures  Interviews and outreach  Over 70 freight performance measures

8 Process -- guiding principles  Purposeful  Maintainable  Manageable  Integrated

9 Process – established the context  Develop categories for the purpose of the data/measurement Measure actionable policy goals and objectives Measure need and benefit/cost in order to forecast freight projects Measure the achievement of the freight system through key indicators Provide data to populate freight system modeling Influence and respond to possible freight performance measure requirements in next federal surface transportation authorization  Correlated goals, policies, and measurements

10 Process – the mechanics  Integrated into the established collection and reporting system  Highlighted freight measures: Index Narrative

11 Process – identified measures FREIGHT PERFORMANCE MEASURES REPORTED IN ATTAINMENT REPORT GOALPERFORMANCE MEASURE Quality of Service Average truck turn-around time at marine terminal Percentage of the Maryland highway network in overall preferred maintenance condition Safety & Security Annual number and rate of traffic fatalities and personal injuries on all roads in Maryland

12 Process – identified measures FREIGHT PERFORMANCE MEASURES REPORTED IN ATTAINMENT REPORT GOALPERFORMANCE MEASURE System Preservation & Performance Number of bridges and percent that are structurally deficient Percent of roadway miles with acceptable ride condition Connectivity for Daily Life Port of Baltimore foreign cargo and general cargo tonnage Percent of freeway lane-miles and arterial lane-miles with average annual volumes at or above congested levels Total value (millions) and total tonnage (thousands) for originating and terminating freight in Maryland

13 Process – identified measures FREIGHT MOBILITY KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS REPORTED BY STATE HIGHWAY ADMINISTRATION Number of bottlenecks along the statewide freight network Amount of time savings for trucks due to delay reduction gained by implementing the CVISN program Amount of delay on roadway system due to bottlenecks along statewide freight network Amount of delay for trucks due to bottlenecks

14 Continuation strategy  Participate in development of next 20-year vision document  Develop an internal reporting document to reflect successes of our freight planning efforts  Continue outreach and education
