Integrative Freight Demand Management in the New York City Metropolitan Area - Implementation Phase

The purpose of this project is to design and develop policies and programs to foster unassisted off-hour deliveries (UOHD) and off-hour deliveries (OHD) at large traffic generators in New York City. As part of this project UOHD will be implemented and the results will be assessed. The main tasks include: (1) Identification of Operational Concepts and Policies; (2) Institutional Coordination, Community/Private Sector Outreach; (3) Implementation Planning; (4) Remote Sensing Based Performance Assessment System; (5) Redesign and Enhancement of Behavior Micro-Simulation (BMS); (6) Develop Traffic Simulation, Modify/Enhance the Regional Demand Model; (7) Implementation Design and Evaluation; (8) Implementation of OHD in Study Area(s); (9) Implementation Assessment and Economic Analysis; and (10) Final Report.
