SB 671 requires that the CTC prepare a Clean Freight Corridor Efficiency Assessment to identify freight corridors, or segments of corridors, and the infrastructure needed to support the deployment of zero-emission medium and heavy-duty vehicles. The Clean Freight Corridor Efficiency Assessment is due December 1, 2023.

The California Transportation Commission’s (Commission) Clean Freight Corridor Efficiency Assessment (Assessment) outlines a path forward for California to plan and implement zero-emission freight infrastructure by identifying the initial infrastructure needed to support zero-emission goods movement. To identify the initial infrastructure needed, the Commission first identified the top 6 freight corridors in California. The “Top 6” freight corridors were defined as corridors greater than 50 miles in length, with the highest concentration of goods movement and highest average daily truck vehicle miles traveled.

1. I-5 From California's Southern border with Mexico to its Northern border with Oregon

2. I-15 From San Diego to California's Southeast border with Nevada

3. State Route 99: From Red Bluff to Bakersfield

4. I-10/I-70: From the San Pedro Bay port to Los Angeles to California's Southeast border with Arizona

5. I-40: From its intersection with I-15 to California's Southeast border with Arizona

6. I-80/I-580 and I-880: From the Port of Oakland to San Francisco to California's northeast border with Nevada
