TruckPark Inc.

Chicago, IL

Truck parking is an important element of the United States’ transportation system, as it provides truckers with safe places to rest and stage for deliveries. Demand for truck parking spaces exceeds supply, and shortages are especially common in and around urban areas. These shortages jeopardize public safety as they are associated with truck parking on highway ramps and shoulders, parking in unsecure areas, and violations of truckers’ maximum hours of service. TruckPark is an innovative driver application which enables truck drivers and fleets to locate and reserve parking spots along their routes in real-time. Truck drivers are required to regularly rest due to federal regulations and therefore need to find suitable parking locations along their routes.
