What is the Freight
& Rail Plan?
The North Dakota Department of Transportation (NDDOT) is creating the first combined State Freight & Rail Plan.
The State Freight & Rail Plan will assess all freight modes, identify needs and issues, provide recommendations for policies, programs, processes, and identify potential projects that improve efficiency, reliability and safety. The State Freight and Rail Plan will rely on private sector shippers and carriers, state and local agencies and public input to direct future freight and rail transportation in the state.
