Weather Intelligence &Severe Weather Operations
GP Transco leverages advanced weather intelligence embedded directly into our in-house developed OpenRoad TMS, combining live weather data with real-time fleet visibility to proactively manage risk before conditions become dangerous.
This system continuously monitors weather patterns across active routes and automatically evaluates potential impact based on vehicle location, timing, and operating conditions—allowing our teams to act before drivers encounter hazardous weather.
Proactive Driver Alerts & Guidance
When a truck is detected to be within 20 miles of severe or hazardous weather, the system automatically initiates a multi-layered safety response:
A real-time alert is sent directly to the driver through Samsara
An AI-powered voice call follows, clearly explaining the weather situation and providing specific safety guidance and instructions
All guidance is dynamically adjusted based on Hours of Service (HOS), current duty status, and operational constraints, ensuring decisions remain compliant, realistic, and focused on driver safety.
Company-Wide Severe Weather Mode
For widespread or escalating weather events, GP Transco activates Severe Weather Mode through our in-house intranet platform, GP Transco Connect. Once activated:
Every department across the company is immediately notified
The organization transitions into coordinated weather operations mode
Safety and Operations teams begin structured coordination calls every two (2) hours
These recurring reviews allow leadership and frontline teams to continuously reassess conditions, evaluate driver locations, adjust plans, and take proactive action as weather conditions evolve.
Continuous Monitoring & Coordinated Response
Severe Weather Mode remains active for the duration of the event, ensuring:
This integrated approach allows GP Transco to respond decisively, minimize risk, and maintain safe operations even during rapidly changing or unpredictable weather events.
