WisDOT is currently conducting a comprehensive study of truck parking needs in Wisconsin. This study reflects growing national and state concerns over lack of legal parking options, which can lead to unsafe truck parking situations. 

​Critical to the study is a set of stakeholder surveys for dr​ivers, trucking companies, and truck stop operators that, when combined, will help identify where truck parking is most needed and what factors are most important when drivers look for parking.

In addition to these surveys, the study will use lar​ge datasets to identify locations where trucks are currently parking. Results from these efforts will help inform WisDOT to identify locations with the greatest needs for additional parking.​

Truckers and others in the motor carrier sector can take the Truck Parking Survey, which will be open until January 19, 2026.​

For any questions about the survey, please contact Dave Leucinger at david.leucinger@dot.wi.gov.​
