Why Logistics Is Important
4
Each North Carolinian generates / consumes 20 tons of
freight per year
* 1 tractor-trailer (TL) load per resident per year = 9+
million TL per year
• Can’t continue to expand and build roads
• Need to meet different requirements in different
regions
• Optimize existing transport network and services
