The Minnesota Statewide Freight Plan is a multimodal plan that identifies significant freight system trends, needs, and issues. The Plan presents a framework that includes the freight policy, policy directions with strategies and performance measures and indicators that will guide investment decision-making. The Plan will help guide follow-on actions for improving the freight transportation system and suggests appropriate roles for Mn/DOT and stakeholders. For the purposes of this Plan, freight is defined as the transportation of commodities/cargo, raw or finished. This is a long-range plan for statewide freight transportation by trucks on the roadways, by trains on the railways, by ships and barges on the waterways and by airplanes in the skies. Additionally, significant attention has been paid to intermodal movements of freight, where goods move from one mode to another. Pipelines, an important system for carrying petroleum and natural gas in the state, are not mentioned in the report due to security concerns precluding identification of specific facilities.
