The transportation system that supports the movement of freight across America is facing a crisis.
Our highways, railroads, ports, and waterways require investment well beyond current levels to maintain – much less improve – their performance. Millions of jobs and our nation’s long-term economic health are at risk.
“Notice the number of trucks, semis, and other cargo vehicles the next time you are driving. Now imagine in 20 years: For every two trucks you see on the road today, there will be an additional one right behind it. If we don’t add more capacity, those additional trucks will be right next to you on the roadway, adding congestion and delays. Is that a future you want to experience?” – John Horsley
