Episode description

The Federal Highway Administration is taking nominations for a new advisory board that could help the agency toward an entirely new system for funding highways. Also, Christmas is more than 10 weeks away, but preparations for the U.S. Capitol Christmas Tree ceremony are in full swing. Two Werner drivers will do the honor of picking up the tree and delivering it to Washington, D.C. And load-to-truck ratios increased for all three equipment types last week. We’ll get the latest details on what the spot market looks like as shippers and retailers close out the third quarter.
