Is the agency interested in roadside truck disablements as predictive corridor safety risks?
Many existing corridor intelligence systems focus primarily on traffic flow after disruptions occur. Is the agency interested in approaches that instead predict and prevent the operational events themselves — such as commercial vehicle failures, thermal derating, or unsafe roadside disablements — before they cascade into broader freight corridor congestion and highway safety impacts?

USDOT is not able to consider adding a new topic or expanding a current topic to the forthcoming FY26 Solicitation. Please note that there is a commercial vehicle safety project (26-OS1 Predictive Safety Analytics for Commercial Transport Modernization) that may be worth reviewing given the operational events noted in the question.
