It is a comprehensive network of truck routes that form an arterial grid system across the metropolitan region. The network includes eight north/south corridors, seven east/west corridors, and nine connector corridors to access major freight areas. Its purpose is to identify efficient regional truck routes to direct truck movements and reduce truck vehicle-miles traveled (VMT), using roadways with truck-friendly design that also provide direct access to pick-up and delivery locations.&nbsp;</p><p><strong>Attributes:</strong></p><ul><li><strong>FEATURE ID:</strong> Identifying number for the feature</li><li><strong>Label:</strong> The name of the road</li><li><strong>Route Name:</strong> The name of the feature within this dataset</li><li><strong>Route Type:</strong> The type of route (e.g., North_South, East_West)</li><li><strong>Shape_Leng:</strong> The length of the segment in feet</li></ul><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>Date:</strong> 2009</p><p>For additional information, please visit the Atlanta Regional Commission at <a target='_blank' href='https://www.atlantaregional.org' rel='nofollow ugc noopener noreferrer'>www.atlantaregional.org </a>.</p>
