Truck Parking Capacity and Utilization by State

Statewide averages are a starting point—not a corridor diagnosis. Use this table to identify high-pressure states, compare public and private capacity, and open the detailed state report.

Key takeaway

Several state and facility combinations exceed 60% average utilization, but statewide averages can hide local peaks and constrained usable capacity.

Why it matters

Screen states here, then use corridor- and facility-level evidence before selecting projects or estimating unmet demand.

Data scope

Based on 2015 and 2019 Jason’s Law inventories, updated through 2026 using facility changes, regulatory information, driver feedback, and satellite review of 11,800+ sites.

Interpretation note: Utilization values are statewide planning estimates, not a guarantee of real-time space availability. Published capacity may differ from usable capacity because of trailer drops, access constraints, pavement conditions, temporary closures, or undesignated parking. Public inventories may include rest areas, weigh stations, welcome centers, designated parking areas, and shoulder locations where included in the underlying source.
