Indiana Truck Parking Study Data
Indiana truck parking data for stronger DOT proposals
Get verified inventory, shortage screening, corridor context, and proposal-ready outputs without rebuilding the analysis from scratch.
Why it matters: Better parking evidence makes unmet demand and investment priorities easier to defend.

Public parking spaces
1,211 spaces planned by 2033
Indiana's truck parking plan proposes adding 1,211 spaces by 2033 through reorganization, new construction, and targeted expansion. Truck-only facilities are aimed at high-accident areas such as Indianapolis and Northwest Indiana, with TPIMS expansion for real-time information.
Larger facilities, but overnight demand still overflows
- Almost 49% of locations have 15 or fewer truck spaces.
- About 17% have five or fewer spaces.
- Paid facilities average approximately $16.50 per night.
Grid screening across approximately 802 hexagons:
- 57 shortage grids: peak utilization exceeds 90%.
- 188 demand grids: modeled demand exists without an official parking location.
Why this matters in a competitive DOT proposal
Typical approach
- Unscreened facility lists
- No distinction between usable and incidental parking
- Weak connection to the proposal narrative
- Limited support for investment prioritization

Reality check
Counts differ across sources because inclusion rules differ. Public totals and Trucking Lab numbers are complementary — one gives statewide context, the other gives usable supply.
Common questions
How many truck parking spaces are in Indiana?
Trucking Lab includes 12,725 private truck parking spaces across 307 locations and 3,218 public spaces across 42 locations.
Where is pressure concentrated?
Indiana planning material points to Indianapolis, Northwest Indiana, and the I-64, I-65, and I-69 corridors.
What is the main truck parking issue in Indiana?
Expanding and reorganizing parking across high-demand overnight corridors while improving safety and modernizing the rest area network.
Why do truck parking counts differ across sources?
Counts differ because datasets apply different facility definitions and inclusion rules. Public totals provide statewide context, while Trucking Lab numbers focus on usable parking supply.
