  • Barnstable County Freight Study
    Barnstable County Freight Study February 13, 2015 Executive Summary This 2015 Cape Cod Freight Study is the first attempt by the Cape Cod Metropolitan Planning Organization to bring a comprehensive assessment of issues facing freight haulers to, from and within Barnstable County. The information in this study will help to identify the methods used to transport freight and provide recommendations to improve freight flexibility, speed-efficiency, fuel- efficiency, and safety. The study provides details regarding existing infrastructure, for each movement type (trucking, rail, and waterborne). Truck freight issues are focused on on-time reliability and routing options. The Cape’s arterial road and bridge network forms the backbone of freight routing – with significant constraints at the Cape Cod Canal area. Rail infrastructure is far more limited – with its own unique constraints at the rail bridge over the Cape Cod Canal. Waterborne freight is currently very limited, but the many ports and harbors of the Cape provide opportunities unique to the area. The study features data from a survey presented to local freight businesses. Respondents indicated their particular freight use and needs and support for investments to improve freight infrastructure. In order continue to make progress in improving freight safety and reliability, the following strategies are offered: Identify “Critical” Freight Commodities Encourage Specific Types of Freight Transportation Make Infrastructure Improvements for Freight Industry Update Truck Routes for MassDOT

PLANNING FOR AN EASY ARRIVAL AND SMOOTH DEPARTURE: All passengers and vehicles must be at the dock and ready for boarding at least 30 minutes hour prior to scheduled departure.

If you are traveling on our traditional ferries without a vehicle, you may purchase your passenger ferry tickets at the ticket office. Please see detailed information about our high-speed ferry to Nantucket below. Passenger capacity may be reached on popular sailings prior to departure, so it is best to arrive early. PARKING: When headed to Martha’s Vineyard, please be advised that parking is not available dockside at our Woods Hole terminal. You will need to park in one of our off-site parking lots located in Falmouth or Cataumet. Plan to arrive an hour before your departure trip to allow time to access our off-site parking and free shuttle service to and from our Woods Hole terminal.
