Initial Findings Ì Indiana’s Freight dependent industries are healthy and growing (representing a larger % of GSP than the national average) Ì Due to its strategic location, proximity to large consumer markets, and excellent transportation network, Indiana is well poised for economic growth Ì Indiana’s air and marine freight industries are vibrant with capacity to expand – Indiana lacks efficient rail service to/from the West, as well as north-south linkages for bulk commodities – Indiana’s distribution potential is limited due to rail service limitations – Indiana’s lack of intermodal facilities limits ability to benefit from commodities moving “through” the state – Lack of east-west roadways in the northern portion of the state results in delays in the movement of freight around the Chicago metropolitan area – Indiana’s urban areas are beginning to experience congestion, which can be expected to worsen in the future without infrastructure improvements – Lack of Ohio River crossings limits access to Southern Indiana, hindering industry/port development

What This Means for Indiana Trucks are competing with passenger vehicles for capacity on Indiana’s major highways, particularly in urban areas. Future congestion on Interstate routes could lead to increased truck volumes on arterials. Railroads are operating near capacity, with significant investment needed to maintain market share in the future. The result will be increased congestion and delay which affect both passenger transportation and regional commerce. Due to limited rail service between IN and the western US, a significant portion of both inbound and outbound rail commodity tonnages are transferred between carriers and modes in Chicago. Indiana is well positioned for growth in the sectors that are dependent on freight goods movement. In order for this growth to occur, Indiana’s infrastructure must be able to keep pace.
