Today the Senate Commerce Subcommittee on Surface Transportation, Freight, Pipelines, and Safety convened a hearing, titled “The Need for Speed: How Technological Advances are Driving Transportation Innovation.” Ahead of the hearing, IANA’s President & CEO Anne Reinke wrote subcommittee leadership and members, urging a mode-neutral approach to technology. “To ensure the continued success and competitiveness of the freight network, it is essential that policymakers allow industry to advance technology that has a proven record of delivering equivalent – or superior – safety outcomes, regardless of mode,” she said. “A regulatory framework for technological innovation that favors one mode over another harms supply chain interoperability as well as competition.”   Reinke went on to note recent federal policymaking inconsistencies across modes: “For example, a single legislative proposal is seeking to advance a framework that identifies pathways for addressing safety related operational barriers to the deployment of autonomous commercial trucks, while simultaneously codifying a minimum crew-size requirement and limiting the independent utility of automated track inspections for freight railroads. This mismatch pits modes against each other, launching one into the future and keeping another in the past. Parity across all modes is a critical element in advancing a technological framework.” Read the full letter here hubs.li/Q04kLNQx0.

Following CORCA’s overwhelmingly bipartisan passage in the U.S. House of Representatives, a coalition of shippers and transportation industry associations is urging the U.S. Senate to act quickly. In a letter delivered yesterday to U.S. Senators, the coalition emphasized the need to advance this legislation that addresses cargo theft and bolsters supply chain security. IANA President & CEO Anne Reinke added, “Bipartisan legislation like CORCA will strengthen the U.S. economy by enhancing supply chain efficiency, penalizing dangerous crime groups, and protecting American workers and consumers.” Click here hubs.li/Q04j-sJm0 to read the whole coalition letter.

Modal conversion historically takes three to six months. This time it's taking one. The shippers moving fastest aren't waiting for their annual carrier review. They're re-pricing their top lanes now, running intermodal trials on corridors where the rate spread justifies it, and using this window to compress a procurement cycle that typically unfolds over a quarter. That speed matters because windows like this one don't announce their end date. The regulatory enforcement driving truckload tightening is structural, not cyclical. But diesel prices move. Import volumes recover. Intermodal capacity that's available today gets absorbed. The shippers who treat this as an observation rather than an action item will have accurate notes and the same routing guide they started with. The Intermodal Moment was written for the ones who want to move. Download here: hubs.li/Q04jycSY0

Our Word on the Move series is here once more to help you know all the right terms for intermodal work! 🌎 Today's term is "international container." Often called ISO containers, international containers are standardized, reuasable steel boxes designed for transporting goods across multiple modes of transportation; ship, rail, and truck, without unloading cargo. 🌎 ISO containers play a vital role in today’s global trade by offering a standardized, robust, and flexible way to transport and store goods across different modes of transportation. #IANA #WordontheMove #Intermodal #Freight

THE INTERMODAL MOMENT: Cost, Capacity, and Regulatory Pressure Converge. Download White Paper Here: hubs.li/Q04hv0qJ0 Fuel volatility is the headline. Regulatory capacity contraction and a widening rate spread are the story. But here's what makes this moment different from prior cycles: all three are happening at the same time. Sustained diesel prices. A 45% rate spread between truckload and intermodal. Over 48,000 trucks removed from capacity due to accelerating regulatory enforcement. Import softness that has freed up intermodal capacity just as demand for it is rising. These conditions don't align often. And they don't last. Shippers who have historically treated intermodal as a secondary option are running out of reasons to wait. The cost case was always there on the right lanes. Now the capacity case and the service case are catching up, and the data is moving fast. Domestic intermodal volumes grew nearly 10% year-over-year in March alone. IANA has published a new white paper, The Intermodal Moment, that examines what's driving this window, what's sustaining it, and why the timing of shipper action matters. @Sandy built the case from the ground up: the data, the analysis, and the argument for why now. If you're managing significant truckload spend, this is worth your time. The window is real. It is not permanent. Download White Paper Here: hubs.li/Q04hv0qJ0
