Why Cube is the Best Transportation Modeling System
The only system that covers
all facets of transportation
modeling
• people
• goods
• land use
• region-wide traffic
simulation
• multi-modal
microsimulation
Background
• Significant growth in goods movement in the Los
Angeles region required improved models to
evaluate impacts
• Models needed to address different potential
improvements

Higher capacity intermodal rail terminals
Truck-only lanes
Extended working hours at the ports
Short-haul shuttles from ports to inland freight
facilities
Objectives
• Components of the freight model should
include
– Long-haul freight from commodity flows
– Short-haul freight from socioeconomic data in
the region and warehouse and distribution
centers
– Service truck movements
• Recognize trends in labor productivity,
imports, and exports
• Integrate with passenger models

Data Requirements
• Detailed Socio-economic data
• Reliable Commodity Flow Data
• Origin-Destination Surveys to calibrate
Trip Distribution
• Port Data
• Data on TLNs (Intermodal Terminals,
distribution Centers, Warehouses)
• Truck Classification Counts
9
Study Area
• Within 5 county SCAG region – zip
codes
• Remainder of California – counties
• Remainder of USA – states
• 4 external zones; 2 each for Canada
and Mexico

Truck Time Functions
• LTL Time = Time+40 hrs for loading /
unloading
• TL Times – Drive 11 hrs between rest periods
of 10 hrs
13
Model Descriptions – Tonnage
Generation
• Commodities were grouped into 14
categories
• Productions based on tonnage rate per
employee
• Consumptions based on input-output
matrix
• Port trips added from the Port’s models
• Trends in production efficiencies,
imports and exports

Model Descriptions – Tonnage
Distribution
• Trips split into short-haul and Long Haul
• All short-haul trips are assumed to be
truck trips
• Short trip distribution based on a gravity
model
• Long trips are distributed using a joint
distribution and mode choice model.

Model Descriptions – Mode
Choice / Service
• Estimates Truck and Rail Trips
• Based on a multinomial logit model
• Three independent variables, time,
distance and highway generalized cost
• Applied for 3 distance classes
– <500, 500-1500 ; >1500 miles
• Service Model
– Estimates safety, utility, public / personal
vehicles
20
Model Descriptions – Transport
Logistics Node Model
• Estimates direct and non-direct trips
• Includes intermodal terminals,
warehouses, distribution centers etc.
• Model Outputs are
– Direct flows from origin to destination
– Flows from origin to the TLN
– Flows from the TLN to destination

Summary
• Developed and tested for one of the most
complex freight transportation system in the US
• Multimodal tool useful for freight investment
decisions
• TLN and service models provide accurate
accounting of truck trips
• Use of changes in labor productivity and trends
• Model can evaluate a wider range of alternatives
