2025 Truck Parking Study

WisDOT is currently conducting a truck parking study in Wisconsin. These efforts reflect growing national and state concerns over lack of legal parking at safety rest areas, leading to unsafe truck parking in those and other places. This study, anticipated to be completed in summer 2026, will use onboard technology to identify locations where trucks are currently parking. In addition, an online survey was conducted of drivers, trucking companies, and truck stop operators to learn where they see the greatest concerns for truck parking. Together, results from these efforts will help inform WisDOT on where the trucking sector sees the greatest needs for additional parking.
