Abstract:

This paper discusses the freight trip attraction (FTA) and freight trip production (FTP) patterns of establishments in different industry sectors. In addition, the paper compares the freight trip generation of pure receiver establishments, i.e., establishments that only receive goods, and intermediaries i.e., establishments that both receive and ship goods. The paper provides a descriptive analysis of the data used and the results using freight trip generation models estimated by the authors. These indicate that there are important differences between production and attraction between establishments across and within industry segments, and between pure receivers and intermediaries.

Supplemental Notes:
