Northwest Arkansas’ J.B. Hunt Transport Services Inc. announced a recent collaboration with the leading autonomous driving technology developer Waymo.

• Becoming autonomous: J.B. Hunt and Waymo will be working together on autonomous trucking technology, including a pilot delivering goods for J.B. Hunt customer Wayfair, one of the world’s most prominent destinations for the home. Waymo has experience building autonomous driving technology that spans over 20 million miles on public roads and 20 billion miles in simulation. 
• Testing further: The latest pilot will span six-plus weeks during July and August on a highway in Texas, and it will be the first in-depth autonomous transportation of home goods and furnishings between the collaborating companies. With this partnership, innovative thinking and autonomous technology will advance J.B. Hunt’s mission to create the most efficient transportation network in North America.
