West Virginia 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.
West Virginia parking, at a glance
West Virginia’s strongest pressure follows I-77, I-79, I-64, Charleston, and mountainous Districts 2 and 8, where geography limits practical expansion.
Small facilities dominate the inventory
- More than 47% of locations have 15 or fewer truck spaces.
- About 9% have five or fewer spaces.
- Paid facilities average approximately $18.30 per night.
Grid screening across approximately 602 hexagons:
- 46 shortage grids: peak utilization exceeds 90%.
- 66 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 mountain-corridor context
- 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 West Virginia?
Trucking Lab includes 1,262 private spaces across 42 locations and 718 public spaces across 24 locations.
Where are the main pressure areas?
I-77, I-79, I-64, Charleston, and mountainous Districts 2 and 8 carry the strongest pressure.
