This toolkit provides resources to help transportation planning agencies make decisions on alternative fuel vehicles (AFVs) used in freight applications. The toolkit complements the findings and insights discussed at the workshop titled “Tools for Implementing Alternative Fuel Corridors” held on November 4, 2016 in Troy, New York.

This workshop was part of a two-day conference on clean corridors hosted by the Northeast Diesel Collaborative. The first day featured a series of panels on clean freight activities along with the unveiling of FHWA’s Alternative Fuel Corridors by Administrator Greg Nadeau.

The clean freight corridors toolkit is comprised of six components: resource library, fact sheet on incorporating alternative fuels in state freight plans, fact sheet on improving alternative fuel access alternative fuel station planning along clean freight corridors, alternative fuel funding database, conference materials, and photo gallery. The clean freight corridor planning template provides guidance for states looking to incorporate alternative fuel and clean corridor concepts into their state freight plans under the FAST Act. The fact sheet on improving alternative fuel station planning and the alternative fuel funding database were created at the request of workshop participants. The conference materials include a one-page workshop fact sheet, a summary report, and the presentations from the two-day conference. Finally, the photo gallery contains pictures from both days of the conference.
