Abstract
This session provides a construction and go-live update on the Truck Parking Information Management System (TPIMS). Safe, convenient parking is essential for long-haul truck drivers, the lifeblood of our freight transportation network. Yet drivers often struggle for up to an hour each day to find areas to safely rest. That’s why eight states—Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Michigan, Minnesota, Ohio, and Wisconsin—have joined together to develop this real-time, multistate system.
