Summary of Preliminary Findings Supply Chain Legislative and Policy Infrastructure Initial Recommendations

7/19/2011 19Freight Transportation Framework Study

Supply Chain Trucking is the most prevalent mode of transport Distribution and logistical processes are mainly in

Southern California Cargo diverted from USWC ports will not increase

activity in Arizona Rail is not economical between Arizona and

Southern California Arizona does not have dual railroad competition Balanced flow of cargo does not exist

Legislative/Policy Arizona legislation viewed

as supportive to goodsmovement Internet tax policy is attractive Some trucking policies and rail

bill could be detrimental California legislative activities are not

predictable Mexican border violence has caused firms to

“slow-down” investment

Infrastructure Significant interest was

expressed about I-11 limited knowledge about the

CANAMEX Corridor Strong support for the

South Mountain Freeway Congestion on I-10 through

urban areas Need significant

improvements for freight at the border

Initial Recommendations

Take better advantage of increasing Mexican trade opportunities

Promote I-11 and CANAMEX Corridors Promote the Sun Corridor for economic

development that supports the entire supply chain
