Book excerpt: The final objective was to provide estimates of the potential demand for and revenue from additional bridges along the Texas-Mexico Border, with such estimates complemented by an assessment of current capacity utilization of the available infrastructure. These results are documented in Reports 1976-4 and 1976-5.

Download or read book Suggested Guidelines for Preparing and Reviewing Toll Road Feasibility Studies in Texas written by Thomas L. Glenn and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the final summary report from a research study focusing on the process of preparing and evaluating feasibility studies for private toll road projects in Texas. State legislation requires that the sponsors of a proposed toll road project submit a feasibility study to the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT). The financial viability of a proposed project, as documented in the feasibility study, must be considered by the Texas Transportation Commission as part of the approval process. This study was undertaken to examine the issues associated with toll road feasibility studies, the approaches being used in other states, and possible procedures TxDOT can use in determining whether a proposed private toll road project will be financially viable. This report describes the toll road project proposal process in other states, as well as information required from investment banks and rating agencies. The report presents suggested guidelines for preparing toll road feasibility studies, reviewing submitted feasibility studies, and examining the financial viability of private toll roads in Texas.

Book excerpt: Trade between the U.S. and Mexico has more than doubled since NAFTA went into effect. Most of this trade crosses the border by truck. This report addresses congressional concern that the border area was shouldering a disproportionate share of the costs of increased trade activity and that congestion problems related to expanded traffic were not being adequately addressed. It provides information and analysis on (1) the nature of commercial truck traffic congestion at the southwest border; (2) the factors that contribute to congestion; and (3) the actions, including programs and funding, that are being taken to address these problems. Charts and tables.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This project has investigated the future of toll road development in Texas. As indicated in two previous reports, our research has determined that, while toll roads represent a potentially vital component of the Texas transportation network, the future of such toll roads in the state will depend ultimately on the public's willingness to support them. This report, the final report of this study, discusses several remaining issues that are important in developing a state toll road policy. The final chapter summarizes important study findings, including those of an earlier, related project.

Book excerpt: Effective transportation planning for the 1,230-mile (1,980-km) long Texas-Mexico border must take into account not only the unique characteristics of a binational environment, but also the possible impacts of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA). Accordingly, this study developed two complementary concepts useful in such binational transportation planning: sector analysis and super-crossing. Sector analysis--a concept based on major traffic diversion areas--provides aggregated revenue and/or demand estimates that address regional (as against site-specific) transportation planning issues. The super-crossing concept, developed to address post-NAFTA commercial traffic, is based on Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act (ISTEA) guidelines intended to foster multi- and intermodal facilities. Both concepts are fully described in this report. Additionally, border transportation planning and the implementation of sector analysis methodology require, in turn, assessments of traffic flow patterns and of post-NAFTA socioeconomic indicators. Thus, NAFTA socioeconomic impacts and origin and destination patterns are included as study objectives, both of which are fully documented in this report.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In providing incentives for increased trade among the U.S., Canada, and Mexico, the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) could considerably liberalize freight carriage across these countries' respective borders. While Texas has a substantial economic interest in this increased trade, transportation planners indicate that the state, because of its strategic geographic location and its 2000-km-long border with Mexico, is destined to sustain a disproportionate share of such negative effects as traffic hazards, pavement consumption, and excessive capacity of its highways and border crossings. Accordingly, this report (1) updates and expands international traffic information in the Transborder database; (2) analyzes transborder traffic growth over the period 1993-94 (which takes into account the effects of NAFTA) and 1994-95 (which takes into account the Mexican peso devaluation); and (3) quantifies the amount of U.S.-Mexico trade that uses Texas' highway and rail infrastructure, but which has origins and destinations outside Texas.
