Truck Parking Survey
ATRI is part of a team under contract to the Colorado Department of Transportation to identify truck parking issues and solutions within the state.  Park of our work is to solicit truck driver input on Colorado truck parking issues including truck parking problem areas, the effect of road closures on drivers, Colorado corridors with the most severe truck parking issues, and solutions to these issues that drivers may have.

I’d like to ask your help by distributing the survey link to your members to encourage their drivers to participate.  The focus is on commercial drivers who operate in and through Colorado.
