2.1.e: Freight Bottlenecks and Policy Outreach
Target major freight bottlenecks and expand freight policy outreach by: transforming DOT’s Gateway Team in Southern California
into a larger Intermodal Team to convene the region’s diverse freight stakeholder community to forge consensus on immediate
and longer-term solutions; engaging shippers from the retail, manufacturing, agricultural and technology sectors, as well
as freight carriers and logistics firms, through a series of ‘CEO Summits’ structured around DOT’s National Freight Policy
Framework; and, establishing a senior-level DHS-DOT border congestion team to prioritize operational and infrastructure improvements
at the Nation’s most congested border crossings.
