Commercial trucks coming over from Mexico again moved at a snail’s pace as Texas Department of Public Safety enhanced inspections continued for a sixth consecutive day at the El Paso region’s largest commercial border crossing.
The truckport will allow for autonomous trucks to fuel, undergo inspections and more, while picking up or dropping off loads from local, first- and last-mile drivers.
On Thursday, self-driving trucking company Kodiak Robotics and Pilot Co. opened their first truckport for autonomous vehicles at the Pilot Travel Center in Villa Rica, Georgia. According to the news release, the truckport will be used by Kodiak to launch and land its autonomous trucks and serve as a hub for drivers to pick and drop off loads for first- and last-mile deliveries.
