Modernizing Trucking Licensing: $217M Boost for Bus and Truck Industry

U.S. Transportation Secretary Sean P. Duffy announced Monday that his office will inject $217 million into the trucking and bus industries to modernize licensing systems and crack down on fraudulent operators.

Grants distributed through the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) will target technology upgrades and workforce development.

“The trucking industry is built on the hard work of family-owned businesses, independent owner-operators, and professional drivers who play by the rules,” said Alabama Trucking President and CEO Mark Colson.
