National Coalition on Truck Parking – Working Groups

The National Coalition on Truck Parking brings together stakeholders from the public sector, transportation organizations, the freight industry, and other groups to advance safe truck parking. In fall 2017, the National Coalition on Truck Parking held its annual meeting to showcase cross-cutting truck parking initiatives from States and introduce the National Coalition on Truck Parking Working Groups. The purpose of the working groups is to share best practices and create products to disseminate information on truck parking issues related to priorities identified during regional meetings in 2016. The working groups are a deliverable of the National Coalition on Truck Parking.

The working groups cover the following topics:

• Parking Capacity
• Technology and Data
• Funding, Finance, and Regulations
• State, Regional, and Local Government Coordination

Notes from the National Coalition on Truck Parking Annual Meeting can be found below. Notes from each working group meeting, as well as products identified for development by each working group, are organized by topic below.
