New Mexico Truck Parking Study Data
New Mexico 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.

Spacing matters more than totals
Private capacity concentrates among major chain operators, with a public rest area system spread across National Highway Freight Network routes. Hotspots center on Albuquerque, the I-10 southern corridor, I-40, and the Las Cruces to Texas border routes.
Small facilities dominate the inventory
- More than 51% of locations have 15 or fewer truck spaces.
- About 21% have five or fewer spaces.
- Paid facilities average approximately $15.00 per night.
Grid screening across approximately 2,408 hexagons:
- 206 shortage grids: peak utilization exceeds 90%.
- 108 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 New Mexico?
Trucking Lab includes 5,790 private truck parking spaces across 122 locations and 573 public spaces across 55 locations.
Where is pressure concentrated?
Hotspot patterns and freight-plan context point to Albuquerque, Las Cruces, I-10, I-40, and the main Texas-connected freight corridors.
What is the main truck parking issue in New Mexico?
Corridor-spaced demand across a large geography, where the challenge is usable parking along long-haul routes rather than maximizing statewide counts.
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.
