In PA. we have our 2009 rail plan in place and on our web site. We also have a PA Rail Benefits Estimator that will be used this year to assist in internal project cost benefit analysis. This not available outside of our bureau. We have also created draft regulations and policy. The policy is available on our web site. Regulations are in the approval process and not available for distribution. I hope this helpful.

Hello all,
We are wanting to hear from practitioners about the kinds of indicators and
tools you use for:
- evaluating the effectiveness of your goods movement network,
- evaluating the effectiveness of proposed improvements (or scenarios)
to your network, and
- determining strategies for improvements to your goods movement network.
Thanks,
Marshall
