In 1999, 8.2 million twenty-foot-equivalent units (TEUS) of containerized cargo moved through the Ports of Long Beach and Los Angeles. The Ports of Long Beach/Los Angeles are ranked third in the entire world in terms of containerized cargo, and are ranked first in the United States. This existing throughput is expected to triple in the next twenty years. To adequately address this continued robust growth in international trade and corresponding cargo throughput, the Ports have jointly prepared a Transportation Master Plan (TMP). The TMP is the first comprehensive, areawide analysis of the Ports since the early 1980s, and the first study that included an integrated, intermodal logistics analysis. In addition to logistics, the disciplines of transportation planning, traffic engineering, and civil engineering have being employed in the TMP. The TMP includes detailed analyses within and immediately adjacent to the Port area, and a regional transportation system access analysis.
