About ATA and the parking resource

American Trucking Associations, or ATA, represents trucking-industry interests through advocacy, member services, conferences and professional councils. Its truck-parking page explains the industry’s concerns about safe parking and links to research and policy developments.

The page is useful to company drivers, fleet managers and advocates who want background on parking shortages and efforts to expand capacity. ATA is an industry association; its parking resource does not book spaces or provide live vacancy information.

Truck parking advocacy and current developments

ATA supports investment in safe truck parking and encourages public agencies to prioritize capacity projects. Its parking materials discuss federal funding, state action and research about the impact of parking shortages on drivers. Recent news articles provide dated updates on specific grants and proposed legislation.

Read the latest article and the underlying government material before treating a proposal as enacted or a funded project as open. A grant announcement is not an operating-hours or parking-availability notice. For a trip, confirm access and parking rules with the selected facility or official state system.

Research and participation

The parking page points readers to truck-parking diary research and Jason’s Law survey information. These sources can help a driver group or fleet describe recurring parking needs and understand how time spent searching for parking affects operations.

For an advocacy inquiry, identify the corridor and describe when the shortage occurs, the equipment involved and the type of improvement sought. ATA’s policy, legislative and grassroots channels have distinct purposes. Use the official contact directory to reach the appropriate department or a related state trucking association.

Membership and professional resources

ATA offers company membership categories for carriers, shippers, suppliers and other eligible organizations. Its membership FAQ explains eligibility and company-account access. Employees of member companies can ask about available benefits and use the appropriate company affiliation when accessing resources.

Professional councils include safety management, technology and maintenance, transportation security, accounting and finance, and Women In Motion. Their resources, events and technical discussions address different industry needs. Confirm eligibility, separate council fees and current membership terms directly with ATA.
