The study includes an examination of general freight pick-up and delivery shipments ranging from one to 5000 lbs. flowing into and out of the Columbus, Ohio Central Business District (CBD) performed by private and for-hire carriers stationed outside the CBD. This study examines the impact that routing the measured daily demand through a consolidated terminal would have on traffic flows in the CBD. The experimental technique of simulation was used to make this determination.
