Four years after the California Legislature boosted the gas tax in order to fix the state’s crumbling roads and bridges, California has spent billions and made some progress in repairs, but officials now say the funding is sufficient to complete less than half of the work needed.
The gas tax has been a political hot potato since it was passed in 2017, resulting in the recall of a Democratic state senator who voted for the legislation and an unsuccessful attempt by Republicans in 2018 to ask voters to repeal the higher charges. ....

Cummins to Build Hydrogen Equipment Factory in Spain

Cummins to Build Hydrogen Equipment Factory in Spain
Cummins Inc.
American industrial giant Cummins Inc. plans to build in Spain one of the world’s largest manufacturing facilities for machines that produce hydrogen from electricity.
Cummins joins a growing number of companies that are rapidly scaling up manufacturing and production of the cleaner-burning fuel within the European Union as the bloc seeks to use hydrogen to curb greenhouse gas emissions from polluting industries. The company will partner with Spanish renewable power developer Iberdrola SA to provide the machines for a large-scale project to supply a fertilizer maker in Spain.
Hydrogen made from renewable electricity could cut the carbon footprints of industries such as chemical production, steel making and transportation. However, if the fuel is produced using electricity to separate the gas from water it’s much more expensive than the kind made from fossil fuels. ....

When Will Trucks Drive Themselves?

Leathers
Even as autonomous driving technology continues to advance, the freight transportation business will need more truck drivers in the future, not fewer, Werner CEO Derek Leathers told TT.
American Trucking Associations has estimated that the industry will need to hire 900,000 drivers over the next decade.
“I think that’s something that’s important for the industry and for drivers to understand,” Leathers said.
He compared the emergence of autonomous trucking to the rise of rail intermodal operations.
“There was all kinds of fear when intermodal really started to gain traction that it was going to decimate the trucking industry,” Leathers said. A couple of decades later, however, there are more truck drivers out on the road than there were back then, despite the growth of intermodal freight. ....
