Abstract

With these new GIS-based rural regional transportation planning models, research should address two main objectives: 1) forecast future production levels and predict the routes trucks will take to and from wells, and 2) forecast the impacts of future oil production on rural highway congestion conditions or service levels. Road maintenance and resurfacing costs are being analyzed in complementary MPC studies
