This report documents the development of vehicle miles traveled data files which served as one input to the preparation of the Department of Transportation's report, An Investigation of Truck Size and Weight Limits. It describes the development of the 1985 base case truck traffic projection, and changes from this base that occur as a result of various postulated changes to existing limits. Each data file consists of a series of 15 x 15 matrices of truck vehicle miles traveled by gross combined weight group and truck axle configuration. There is a separate matrix for each of four highway types within each of the States. These files do not account for changes in truck traffic due to modal diversion, which are the subject of another volume in this series. These files do account for changes in vehicle miles traveled by each type of truck due to changes in truck payload, changes in the choice of equipment type, and changes in the route selected.
