The American
Transportation Research Institute (ATRI) today launched a survey to update the
2012 Operational Costs of Trucking report. The brief on-line
survey seeks to capture basic cost information from for-hire carriers such as
driver pay, fuel costs, insurance premiums and lease or purchase
payments. Carriers are asked to provide full year 2012 cost per mile
and/or cost per hour data.
The results of this
survey, combined with the previous Operational Costs of Trucking
reports, will yield five full years (2008 – 2012) of trucking cost information
derived directly from fleet operations. This research provides carriers
with an important
high-level benchmarking tool and government agencies with real world data for
future infrastructure improvement analyses.
The operational cost data
that for-hire motor carriers provide will be kept strictly
confidential. The survey is available online at www.atri-online.org and results
will be available later this year.
