Estimating the Value of Truck Travel Time Reliability
Travel time reliability is frequently cited as an important metric for the trucking community
and users of truck freight services. While the travel time reliability for trucking is
commonly measured, truck reliability is seldom considered in the benefit–cost evaluation
of mobility projects, which underrepresents the benefits accrued to freight users of the
roadway system.
The TRB National Cooperative Highway Research Program's
NCHRP Research Report 925: Estimating the Value of Truck Travel Time Reliability provides
planners and analysts a Reliability Valuation Framework that is applicable to urban
or intercity shipments around the United States across a range of truck freight users and
commodity types.
