As the use of toll roads increase to finance new road infrastructure or add capacity to existing road infrastructure, the question of who use and do not use toll roads becomes increasingly important to toll road developers, financiers, Traffic and Revenue consultants, and investors, among others. The latter pertains specifically to truck usage of toll facilities. Given the high revenue margin brought in by trucks i.e., truckers often pay between two and five times the toll rate levied on cars it is critically important to have robust data and information about truckers potential usage of toll facilities. This research study thus attempted to characterize truck toll road users and non-users of Texas toll roads. Trucking company respondents (108) to an internet and telephone survey that was conducted in the Summer and Spring of 2009 were categorized as truck users and non-users of Texas toll roads and statistical analysis was conducted to provide insight into the characteristics and differences between truckers that choose to use toll roads and those that choose to avoid toll roads. The report also includes a detailed analysis of actual transaction data from the Central Texas Turnpike System.
