Quarterhill expands Caltrans partnership with new commercial vehicle technology projects

Quarterhill Inc. ("Quarterhill" or the "Company"), a leading global provider of intelligent transportation system ("ITS") solutions, today announced three new project awards totaling approximately $2.4 million from the California Department of Transportation ("Caltrans"). The projects extend the Company's long-standing partnership with Caltrans to support commercial vehicle screening and weigh-in-motion ("WIM") data collection programs across key freight corridors in the state.

"California operates one of the largest and most complex freight transportation networks in North America and continues to lead the way in using technology to make its highways safer and more efficient," said Chuck Myers, CEO of Quarterhill. "We are proud to expand our long-standing partnership with Caltrans by delivering the data and screening solutions that help identify high-risk vehicles, streamline compliant truck movement, and support safer highways and infrastructure planning across California's transportation network."

Working in partnership with Caltrans, Quarterhill will support three projects designed to strengthen California's commercial vehicle monitoring and data infrastructure:

• Desert Hills Commercial Vehicle Enforcement Facility (Riverside County) – Deployment of a commercial vehicle e-screening system designed to support more efficient enforcement operations by allowing California Highway Patrol officers to focus inspections on vehicles that may be non-compliant while enabling compliant trucks to move more efficiently through the facility. This will improve enforcement efficiency while reducing congestion at inspection facilities

• Interstate 10 WIM Data Collection System (San Bernardino County) – Installation of a WIM data collection system that will provide detailed vehicle weight and traffic data used to support infrastructure monitoring, freight planning, and transportation system performance analysis. Installation of the system is expected to begin in late 2026 and includes a six-year warranty.

• Route 805 WIM Expansion (San Diego County) – Expansion of WIM coverage along a major freight corridor to enhance the availability of commercial vehicle weight and traffic data used to support transportation planning and infrastructure monitoring across the California's highway network.

California moves more than 2.4 billion tons of freight annually across a vast highway network spanning more than 50,000 miles. These projects will help improve the accuracy and availability of commercial vehicle data used to support transportation planning, freight mobility programs, and infrastructure monitoring across California's highway network. The systems will also enable more targeted enforcement by the California Highway Patrol by helping identify vehicles that may require inspection while allowing compliant trucks to move more efficiently through key freight corridors.

These awards reinforce Quarterhill's growing presence in the U.S. transportation market and highlight the increasing demand for scalable commercial vehicle safety and data solutions.
