Con-way Truckload Regional, which covers short-haul truckload shipments of less than 600 miles (1,000 km), will add 300 trucks in 2010 to handle expansion efforts that will begin in January in Missouri, Kansas, Iowa, Nebraska, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio and Kentucky.
"We've seen a clear demand for this offering in a growing number of regions," said Con-way Truckload President Herb Schmidt.
Joplin, Missouri-based Con-way Truckload began offering regional service in 2008 through an 18-month pilot program. The company's goal is to have at least 1,000 trucks dedicated to nationwide regional service by 2011.
Con-way Truckload currently has a fleet of more than 2,700 tractors and 8,600 trailers operating throughout the United States as well as internationally in Mexico and Canada.
