New York 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
One space for every 25 trucks in NYC
State material identifies major parking around Buffalo, Rochester, Syracuse, Albany, and the New York City metro. The NYC area is the clearest shortage zone, with roughly one space for every 25 trucks.
Small facilities dominate the inventory
- More than 57% of locations have 15 or fewer truck spaces.
- About 19% have five or fewer spaces.
- Paid facilities average approximately $27.50 per night.
Grid screening across approximately 1,168 hexagons:
- 98 shortage grids: peak utilization exceeds 90%.
- 146 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 York?
Trucking Lab includes 4,148 private truck parking spaces across 161 locations and 1,952 public spaces across 83 locations.
Where is pressure concentrated?
New York planning material points to Buffalo, Rochester, Syracuse, Albany, the New York City metro, and the Thruway-connected freight corridors.
What is the main truck parking issue in New York?
Uneven regional shortage, with severe scarcity in the New York City metro that has to be distinguished from broader upstate corridor conditions.
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.
