Many states operate traveler information systems focused on providing vehicles with relevant information within their own borders. Commercial motor vehicles (CMVs) require advance notice (often before they cross a state line) on parking availability, route closures and re-routing, construction activity, and emergency declarations, among other information.
This project aimed to increase awareness and collaboration between state agencies in the North/West Passage (NWP) to benefit trucking operations, with the objective to: Identify freight-relevant information needs and issues and propose a framework for improved sharing information across borders.
This assessment assessed available information and sources; identified information needs and issues; and proposed opportunities for information sharing across borders in the NWP.
