Surface Transportation Weather Safety Gap Analysis Act of 2025

This bill would require the Comptroller General of the United States and the Secretary of Transportation to conduct a joint study on weather-related hazards and gaps in surface transportation safety related to those hazards. The study would review federal programs and grants on weather-related transportation safety, including whether they reduce crash risk, reach rural areas, and support real-time traveler alerts. It would also look at state, local, and Tribal use of weather data in traffic management, the role of emergency responders in closures and evacuations, resource limits, cost-benefit estimates, privacy, and best practices. Within 2 years of the law taking effect, the two officials would submit a joint report with the results and any recommendations to committees of the Senate and House.
