 <p>Autonomous trucks manufacturer, Kodiak Robotics, has partnered with Ryder Systems, a logistics and transportation firm, to set up a truckport in Houston. The truckport, based at an existing Ryder fleet maintenance unit, aims to serve routes between Houston, Dallas, and Oklahoma City. It will be used to launch, land, and transfer freight within these routes. The facility will act as a base for testing Kodiak's operational model and allow preparation for its forthcoming driverless truck operations. Kodiak hopes to leverage Ryder’s service network for future expansion and support services.</p>
