Abstract:

Adequate parking remains a top concern for truck drivers, who need a safe place to stop for many reasons, including hours-of-service (HOS) requirements. The objectives of this research were to (a) gather and analyze data to understand the usage of truck parking capacity (both public and private) along selected National Highway System (NHS) corridors to facilitate a more comprehensive understanding of truck parking needs; (b) determine when, where, and for how long trucks are stopping in unauthorized locations along the selected corridors by analyzing telematics data; and (c) determine the feasibility and benefits of deploying truck parking capacity management platforms to optimize truck parking capacity usage from a geographical and temporal perspective by piloting the ParkUnload platform at selected rest areas. The results of this research can be used to inform truck parking needs assessment studies, inform policy, and prioritize investments in rest areas/facilities, which will ultimately alleviate the safety risks to truck drivers and the general public associated with truck drivers stopping at unauthorized locations due to a lack of adequate short- and long-term parking.
