Defensible freight plans start with observed data
You’re on the clock to deliver a freight plan that stands up to scrutiny. Build it on real-world truck movement – not assumptions – so every recommendation holds up under pressure.
Turn Freight Parking Gaps into Insights
Truck parking is a known issue, but in freight plans, it’s often under-supported. Observed truck behavior reveals where, when, and why parking demand occurs, helping you quantify need, strengthen safety narratives, and support recommendations that hold up under review.

Hidden insights inside all 50 state freight plans
Across all 50 states, freight plans point to the same challenges: safety risks, infrastructure gaps, and congestion pressures. But many fall short in how those issues are measured. This report reveals where plans lack defensible data—and how leading states are closing the gap with observed freight insights.
How agencies are strengthening freight plan outputs
Advancing state freight plans with a cutting-edge commodity flow database
Rhode Island replaced static flow models with dynamic freight data, improving how commodities, corridors, and economic impacts were represented in their plan. The result: stronger alignment with federal expectations and more defensible projections.
New York City Department of Transportation: Creating safer streets with data-driven traffic-calming strategies
By leveraging connected vehicle and telematics data through Altitude by Geotab, NYC DOT replaced time-intensive manual speed monitoring with scalable, reliable analytics—helping prioritize high-risk corridors, validate community safety concerns, and make faster, evidence-based traffic-calming decisions.
Southern California Association of Governments
A regional planning body strengthened its freight strategy by grounding recommendations in observed truck behavior, improving both internal confidence and external credibility.
