âš  This is a flightplan, not a commitment. Flightplans are hypothetical policy proposals modelled in the Ducklings causal simulation. They become projects only when voted into adoption through Consensus. Metrics shown reflect simulation model outputs, not real-world outcomes.

Overview

National trade corridor strategy: port expansions, rail upgrades, highway twinning, and northern airports. Chain: transportation_spending -> trade_balance (+0.20, d12). The 12-epoch delay reflects the reality that infrastructure takes years to impact trade flows. Students see the longest infrastructure delay in the model.

Ducklings Simulation

This proposal is active in the Ducklings causal simulation (Epoch 45). The simulation models downstream effects using a BFS cascade engine with strength-weighted, time-delayed edges capped at 3-hop depth and ±25% per-hop limits. Cascade outputs are bounded by variable saturation thresholds.

How to Engage

Discuss this flightplan in the Pond forum under Infrastructure. Vote on adoption through Consensus. Adopted flightplans become projects with real-world implementation tracking.
