  • Job Creation Factors for Inland and Near Dock Intermodal Facilities
    Job Creation Factors for Inland and Near Dock Intermodal Facilities Chad Miller1, Brian Richard2, MD Sarder3,Tulio Sulbaran4, and Martin Lipinski5 1,2,3,4University of Southern Mississippi Center of Logistics, Trade, and Transportation 118 College Ave. #5022 Hattiesburg, MS 39406 (601) 266-6666; fax (601) 266-6071; email [email protected] 5University of Memphis Intermodal Freight Transportation Institute 3815 Central Ave, Memphis, TN 38152 (901) 678-3279; fax (901) 678-0404; email [email protected] ABSTRACT The major driving forces behind the establishment of intermodal facilities include number of jobs that will be created by the facility, freight performance improvement, and other economic benefits to the region. Job creation is the most tangible benefit that stakeholders use to justify the development of such facilities. This project explores different job creation factors for intermodal facilities in terms of facility types, management structures, financing options, and activitiesperformed. Near port and hinterland type facilities are analyzed separately. This project tests several hypotheses statistically to find the correlations among different job creation factors. The result shows that the public landlord model facility creates more jobs than the private operator model. The result also shows that facilities connected with well-established transportation network systems usually produce more jobs. INTRODUCTION In today’s growing global economy, intermodal facilities have become increasingly popular as a method of increasing efficiency and decreasing costs across the entire spectrum of supply chain operations. Regions across the country are seeking to establish intermodal facilities as a means to fostereconomic development and jobs. In order for a facility to be considered intermodal it must be accessible by more than one mode of transportation such as truck, rail, ship/barge, or plane.
