• Abstract:
  SmartPark is a system that disseminates real-time parking availability information to truck drivers. Several States have launched pilot programs, but widespread deployment has been slow. Because SmartPark is expected to improve compliance with hours-of-service regulations and aid in safe, legal parking, its use aligns with the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration’s (FMCSA’s) safety goals. This study sought to identify barriers limiting the deployment of SmartPark programs, and offers specific actions to speed deployment. Table 1 provides a summary of recommended actions, by barrier, actor, and time frame.
