North/West Passage Freight Task Force - Year 4

Year 4 activities of the Task Force are being pursued to continue the momentum of work conducted during prior year programs. Specifically the activities are designed to 1) support the active engagement of Task Force members on freight needs and issues in the corridor, 2) take steps to advance a multi-state truck platooning demonstration, and 3) establish a basis for future Task Force work programs. Each of these activities is aimed at getting the coalition closer to implementation of projects that will improve freight operations in the North/West Passage corridor.
