Overview

Welcome to Washington state's Freight Transportation System map application! Detailed descriptions are provided below. To get started, press the View Application button in the upper-right corner of this page. Once open, please read the brief instruction provided. This web map application provides an interactive GIS tool for users to view Washington state's freight transportation system by types and modes. It reflects WSDOT's 2021 Freight and Goods Transportation System update, and the National Highway Freight Network designations verified and published by FHWA as of 2019. This web map application was intended to provide valuable freight data sources to support transportation planning efforts, and includes the following sublayers:   1. Freight Intermodal Facilities - shows major freight intermodal facilities in Washington state, including cargo airports, rail intermodal terminals, and major ports handling freight shipments.2. 2021 Freight and Goods Transportation System (FGTS) – classifies freight corridors by modes in Washington State based on annual freight tonnage moved, including truck, rail, and waterway freight corridors. Each modal network is classified into five tiers and the specific annual tonnage thresholds are described below. 1) FGTS truck corridors include: T-1 corridors: more than  10 million tons T-2 corridors: 4 million to 10 million tons T-3 corridors: 300,000 to 4 million tons T-4 corridors: 100,000 to 300,000 tons T-5 corridors: at least 20,000 tons in 60 days and less than 100,000 tons per year 2) FGTS rail corridors include: R-1 corridors: more than 5 million tons R-2 corridors: 1 million to 5 million tons R-3 corridors: 500,000 to 1 million tons R-4 corridors: 100,000 to 500,000 tons R-5 corridors: Less than 100,000 tons 3) FGTS waterway corridors include:   W-1 corridors: more than 25 million tons W-2 corridors: 10 million to 25 million tons W-3 corridors: 5 million to 10 million tons W-4 corridors: 2.5 million to 5 million tons W-5 corridors: 0.9 million to 2.5 million tons 3. Truck Freight Economic Corridors - built upon Freight and Goods Transportation System (FGTS) tonnage classification and takes into account freight system resiliency and first/last mile connectivity to freight land uses and facilities. It includes following components: High volume truck corridors: T-1 and T-2 freight corridors; Alternative freight routes: routes that serve as alternatives to primary cross-state freight routes during severe weather or other disruptions; First/last mile connector routes: truck routes that connect freight-intensive land uses to T-1 and T-2 freight corridors, and alternative freight routes. 4. National Highway Freight Network – established under the Fixing America's Surface Transportation Act (FAST Act) consisting of four components: Primary Highway Freight System (PHFS) Other Interstate portions not on the PHFS Critical Rural Freight Corridors (CRFCs) Critical Urban Freight Corridors (CUFCs) 5. Manufacturing and warehousing land use (2020 parcel data) - shows parcels with manufacturing and warehousing land use codes from 2020 statewide parcel database: https://wsdot.maps.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=3dca0b72eae94c098b21329e1e61afd76. Jurisdictional Boundaries - include Regional Transportation Planning Organization, County Boundaries, and City Limits.For more information about FGTS system, please visit https://www.wsdot.wa.gov/freight/fgts.
