Intermodal

In FY 02, RAMPO completed work on the Richmond Regional Intermodal Transportation Study.  This study examines the potential for an intermodal freight center in the Richmond/Tri-Cities area.  It also examines the region’s freight transportation network (i.e., highways, rail, airport, and port) and provides recommendations to improve freight movement. 

While the study concluded that the region does not need an intermodal facility at this time, it recommended the establishment of an Intermodal Advisory Task Force charged with monitoring future demand for such a facility. 

The task force will also serve as a liaison with the freight movement industry providing for its input into the regional transportation planning process.  It will also review the various study recommendations, address concerns and issues facing the freight movement industry, and bring its recommendations for addressing these concerns and issues to the MPO.
