INDOT research focuses on future technology, including truck automation, electrified roadways

The article from the Chicago Tribune, published on November 30, 2024, discusses the Indiana Department of Transportation's (INDOT) research into future transportation technologies. INDOT is exploring truck automation and electrified roadways as part of its initiative to enhance transportation efficiency and sustainability. The research includes studying how automated trucks could improve safety, reduce congestion, and lower emissions. Additionally, INDOT is investigating the feasibility of electrified roadways, where electric vehicles could charge while driving, potentially reducing the need for large batteries and supporting the transition to electric vehicles. This forward-looking approach aims to integrate these technologies into Indiana's infrastructure to prepare for future transportation needs.
