AI-generated summary, report an errorThis bill would require the U.S. Secretary of Transportation, working with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, to create a pilot program that combines real-time weather hazard alerts with data about active road work zones. The program would develop technical methods to link National Weather Service alerts with work zone location and status data, test these systems with state transportation departments, and study the cost and safety effects of using them nationwide. The Secretary would seek at least 5 volunteer states, including at least 1 rural state, which could use certain federal highway safety funds for the program. Within 3 years, the Secretary would have to report to Congress on the program's activities, lessons learned, and recommendations on expanding it nationwide.
