Trucker Path App Reveals Parts of the U.S. with Least Truck Parking
According to new data from the Trucker Path navigation app, the eastern portion of the U.S. from Maine to Florida has the lowest availability of truck parking spaces. Trucker Path divided the country into six regions and analyzed the percentage of "No spaces available" responses from its 1 million users in each region:
Southeast: 23% of the time
Northeast: 21% of the time
South Central: 20% of the time
West: 19% of the time
Midwest: 17% of the time
North Central: 15% of the time
Despite the scarcity of parking in the eastern region, Trucker Path identified several specific locations where truckers are more likely to find available parking spaces:
Northeast: TA in Milesburg, Pennsylvania
Southeast: Discount Truck Parking in Orlando, Florida
Midwest: Rest area on County Road 62 in Auburn, Indiana
South Central: Gateway Travel Plaza in Vidro, Texas
Central: TA Beto Junction in Lebo, Kansas
West: Petro in Wells, Nevada
These findings highlight the need for better infrastructure and more parking options to support the country's trucking industry, which plays a crucial role in transporting goods and materials across the nation.
