Descripción
In current literature and practices, there are no systematic and user-oriented intermodal
transportation performance measures. After identifying customer needs and transportation goals,
this paper proposes a set of system-level performance measures for intermodal transportation
that are user-oriented, scalable, systematic, and scientifi c. The measures can be used to compare
intermodal design alternatives or to evaluate existing transportation systems with any size and any
mode. The highway system in Mississippi is analyzed as a case study. The case study demonstrates
the existing data sources, the methods of calculating the measures, and the means of evaluating
transportation systems with the measures.
