S Washington St What to expect during construction Full ferry service maintained While under construction, Colman Dock will remain open for millions of commuters and ferry riders. However, there will continue to be changes for ferry customers as work zones change on the dock. Smaller passenger terminal Customers should plan for a smaller waiting area and less available seating inside the terminal building. Throughout construction, WSF will maintain two elevators and ADA-accessible connections between the terminal building, the Marion Street Bridge and the street. Construction noise, vibration and odor Year-round construction can be unavoidably noisy. Customers can expect demolition and shore-based construction work during the winter and spring. Loud, in-water pile driving and removal of odorous creosote-coated timber piles occurs in summer, fall and The Pacific Lifter is the largest floating crane on early winter of each year of construction. Our contractor will use the West Coast of North America. Working from best management practices to minimize these impacts. barges like this one helps minimize the impact to operations on the dock.

ABSTRACT Grain shipping involves many sources of risk and uncertainty. In response to these dynamic challenges faced by shippers, railroad carriers offer various types of forward contracting and allocation instruments. An important feature of the U.S. grain marketing system is that there are now a number of pricing and allocation mechanisms used by most rail carriers. These have evolved since the late 1980’s and have had important changes in their features over time. The operations and impact of these mechanisms are not well understood, yet are frequently the subject of public criticism and studies and at the same time are revered by (some) market participants.

However, the state of research and technology as well as the test results obtained with hydrofoil boats built thus far have enabled us for years to utilize hydrofoil boats which are of considerable size and are safe to operate in ship traffic. The technical and economic inter- est presently being shown in these boats justifies the assumption that the hydrofoil boat will soon develop into a familiar means of transportation in high-speed ship traffic.

  • Grain and Soybean Industry Dynamics and Rail Service
    Grain and Soybean Industry Dynamics and Rail Service Analytical Models of Rail Service Operations Final Report Michael Hyland, Hani Mahmassani, Lama Bou Mjahed, and Breton Johnson Northwestern University Transportation Center (NUTC) Parr Rosson Texas A&M University 1 Executive Summary To remain globally competitive, the United States’ grain industry and associated transportation services underwent significant restructuring over the past fifteen years. New technologies, helped by weather changes, led to sustained yield volume increases in the Upper Midwest. To move larger volumes faster and at lower cost, the railroad industry introduced shuttle train service. Traveling as a unit to the same destination, shuttle trains save considerable time in transit and potential delay, bypassing intermediate classification yards. Grain shippers concurrently began consolidating and storing grain in larger, more efficient terminal elevators (shuttle loaders) instead of country elevators. This report examines the effectiveness of shuttle train service and the terminal elevators supporting the shuttle train system, under different demand levels, through the formulation of simple mathematical models. In order to compare shuttle and conventional rail service, this paper introduces three distinct models. The first model, referred to as the ‘time model’, determines the time it takes to transport grain from the farm to a destination (e.g. an export elevator). The second model, referred to as the ‘engineering cost model’, determines the aggregate variable costs of transporting grain from the farm to an export elevator. The third model, referred to as the ‘capacity model’, determines the maximum attainable capacity (i.e. throughput) of a rail network as a function of demand for rail transport and the percentage of railcars on the network being moved via shuttle service and conventional service.
