Automation has the potential to transform the Nation’s freight transportation system, a vital asset that supports every sector of the economy. Delivery-by-drone and highly-automated trucks have caught the imagination of the public and private sector investors.

This session will discuss how we can ensure these technologies improve the throughput and safety of our freight system, and what the federal government’s role is in achieving the vision of an integrated freight system.
