Abstract:Crowding and illegal parking of trucks at existing public rest areas and along the highway ramps and shoulders has been recognized as a growing concern, with potential safety implications. In Connecticut there are approximately 1,200 trucks that travel into, out of, and through the state on an average day that cannot be accommodated within existing designated public parking areas. This demand is expected to increase to approximately 1,600 by the year 2020. This report is the final of three documents that have been prepared by the Connecticut Department of Transportation (ConnDOT) during the study of this problem. Interim Report Number 1 provided study background and truck parking inventory data, and Interim Report Number 2 provided survey results, accident data, and truck parking demand forecasts. This study pulls together conclusions and looks at possible options to deal with this growing problem. 4 Appendices, 2 tables, 3 figures, 53 p.
