Legislation that would authorize $400 billion over five years for surface transportation programs was unveiled by Republican policymakers in the U.S. House of Representatives May 19.
The Surface Transportation Advanced Through Reform, Technology and Efficient Review (STARTER) Act 2.0 would update a 2015 highway law that expires at the end of September.
The bill would extend or create programs related to highway funding, autonomous vehicles, the trucking workforce and autonomous technology, among other provisions.
