Landstar System drivers will have access to the company’s Web site on cellular telephones.

Through an agreement with AT&T Wireless Services, the company’s 7,100 drivers now have the option to use their wireless Internet-ready phone to conduct business online.

Drivers can use Landstar’s Intranet Web site to choose freight and make other business decisions, according to Landstar’s announcement. Drivers can use the system to get information about everything from available loads to highway construction along a route.

For a monthly cost to the drivers of $14.99, AT&T Digital PocketNet service gives them unlimited access to Landstar’s corporate databases, schedules, weather, street maps, e-mail and contact information from the screens of their wireless phones.
