Abstract:

The Washington State Freight and Goods Transportation System (FGTS) classifies freight corridors by modes in Washington state based on annual freight tonnage moved, including truck, rail, and waterway freight corridors. The Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) designates and updates the FGTS every two years. This dataset shows the truck freight corridors classified under FGTS system, including state highways, ferry routes, city streets, and county roads. Two other datasets are also available and published for FGTS system, including Freight and Goods Transportation System of Washington – Rail Corridors, and Freight and Goods Transportation System of Washington – Waterway Corridors.

Purpose:

The FGTS is updated and maintained to meet RCW requirements. It also provides a valuable freight data source to support various planning processes, and inform freight investment decisions.

Process_Step:

Process_Description:

An Excel spreadsheet containing state route identifiers and beginning and ending ARM values for freight classification segments along state highways was placed as an event theme using ESRI software and converted to a state route feature class. Similar spreadsheets from the County Road Administration Board containing Mobility data (including freight classifications) was placed as event themes using ESRI software and the WSDOT Local Agency Public Roads (LAPR) dataset and converted to county feature classes. Geometry segments contained in the LAPR for city freight route segments were extracted to a city freight route dataset. These feature classes were merged and attributes added and updated to produce a statewide freight and goods dataset.
