Iraqi Transportation Network

摘要

While deployed to Iraq in 2009, the 3d Sustainment Command (Expeditionary) (ESC) worked with coalition forces, the local Iraqi community, and business leaders to set up the Iraqi Transportation Network (ITN). This program strengthened the nation's trucking industry and reduced the number of coalition convoys on highways throughout the Iraq theater of operations.rnITN is an all-Iraqi consortium of tribally-owned trucking companies that move cargo across Iraq for Iraqi Security Forces and coalition forces. ITN's goals are to establish a robust Iraqi trucking industry, improve intertribal and provincial relations, and open new trade opportunities among Iraqi regions. As business expands, greater regional cooperation will be encouraged, which will, in turn, increase civil capacity.
