CHICAGO, July 24, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Roadrunner, The Greatest Comeback Story in Transportation's History�, is accelerating its national growth with over one hundred new lanes added to its proprietary Smart Network�, reinforcing its position as the premier carrier for direct, long-haul, metro-to-metro LTL service with a strong Midwest regional offering.

In addition, Roadrunner is launching new Guaranteed Lanes, expanding its industry-leading guaranteed network to more than 60 lanes nationwide. These additions contribute over 21,000 new miles of coverage across the U.S. and Canada and establish Kansas City as a major new hub, now served by over thirty inbound lanes from every region. This expansion follows the nearly three hundred new lanes Roadrunner added in spring 2025, continuing the company's rapid growth trajectory. Roadrunner, a specialist in long-haul, direct metro-to-metro shipping with average routes exceeding 1,400 miles, is expanding its service capabilities. The new additions provide direct connectivity on routes averaging 315 miles, offering shippers more flexibility—particularly across the Midwest.

"The addition of new lanes into our Smart Network speaks volumes about the level of service we're delivering," saidÌýTomasz Jamroz, President and COO of Roadrunner. "This expansion moves us closer to our goal of becoming the preeminent long-haul LTL carrier in the country. We're increasing speed, reliability, and efficiency where our customers need it most. We're coming off four consecutive months of record Customer Point of View service metric gains, which validate our relentless focus on operational excellence and customer satisfaction."

The Midwest sees the largest expansion, with major new lanes originating from Cincinnati, Cleveland, Detroit, Indianapolis, Louisville, Milwaukee, Minneapolis–St. Paul, Grand Rapids, Lansing, Chicago, and Columbus. This consolidates Roadrunner's core network across industrial and manufacturing hubs, connecting nearly every key Midwestern market directly to its new hub in Kansas City.

The Northeast gains significant reach, with lanes from Boston, Philadelphia, New York/New Jersey (both Newark and Metro areas), Baltimore, and connections feeding into Cleveland and Kansas City. This bolsters long-haul routes linking dense population centers to the Midwest heartland.

In the South and Southeast, new lanes stem from Atlanta, Charlotte, Miami, Orlando, Nashville, and Houston, giving southern shippers expanded access to Kansas City and onward via other Midwest routes.

The West gains a coast-to-coast bridge with lanes from Phoenix, San Diego, Fresno, San Francisco, Sacramento, and Portland, further extending connectivity into the central U.S.

Altogether, these new lanes form a nationally balanced network, but with a heavy concentration on strengthening Midwestern and Northeastern corridors, ensuring seamless coast-to-coast and border-to-border reach while feeding freight efficiently into Kansas City as a central hub.

"Our commitment to a direct-run Smart Network gives shippers more control and reliability—especially as others in the market contract," said Shari Leon, Vice President of Linehaul Operations. "In just the past four months, we've added 400 new lanes—including 100+ this month—expanding our service reach and accelerating transit times with fewer handoffs. This scale-up into high-demand cities showcases the power of our over-the-road model and precision linehaul planning."

As part of the announcement, Roadrunner is expanding itsÌýSmart Guarantee LaneÌýoffering—its bold "service-quality-first" commitment that promises on-time delivery or the shipment is free. New Guaranteed Lanes include:

  • Houston â†� Atlanta
  • Philadelphia â†� Dallas
  • Seattle â†� Dallas
  • San Francisco â†� Chicago
  • Commerce, CA â†� Atlanta, Cincinnati, Indianapolis
  • Milwaukee â†� Dallas, Houston, San Francisco

Roadrunner has been the recipient of several service quality awards from multiple shippers including: the Platinum LTL Carrier Award from Echo Global Logistics, which recognizes outstanding service, commitment, and performance; the Breakthrough Carrier of the Year Award from GLT Logistics, which celebrates dedication to innovation and improvement; and the Elite Carrier Award from Total Quality Logistics (TQL).ÌýRoadrunner was recognized by Newsweekâ„� as one of America's Most Trustworthy Companies and was named a Top 100 Trucking Company byÌýInbound Logistics.
