Vehicle Shippers Need Safe Transport Roads

Transport workers and auto shipping firms will be happy to hear that Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood recently announced the launching of a new United States Department of Transportation Buy America web page. According to sources at the Department of Transportation the agency is committed to maximizing the economic benefits of the money the country will be investing in improving and enhancing the transportation infrastructure during the years ahead, and this news is just part of this plan. Ray LaHood made this announcement to vehicle transport workers on hand during the Building America's Future Policy Forum in Charleston, South Carolina. Sources also indicate that the new web page can be accessed through the Buy America web site.

This news seems to go hand-in-hand with recent news of plans to spend more money on improving and enhancing the transportation infrastructure of the United States during the months and years ahead. The idea of making sure we get as much out of the money we invest in America's transportation infrastructure is hardly new news, though, but still a great idea that can often be assumed, and therefore at times overlooked. We want to make sure that all of the transportation projects built in America are done so as cost-effectively as possible, which will leave more money for other jobs.

This news will certainly put a smile on the faces of some transport drivers operating car carriers on the transport roads and highways of the United States of America. Hopefully, we are able to find a few new ways of both improving and enhancing the transport networks of America and saving a little more money along the way to take care of other jobs.
