TxDOT El Paso/Far West Texas Truck Parking Action Plan

This action plan builds on the 2020 Statewide Truck Parking Study. It focuses on safe truck parking in the El Paso and Odessa TxDOT districts. Links to the action plan and fact sheet can be found here. Additionally, TxDOT has developed a StoryMap that goes over the current issues and the proposed solutions. This plan focuses on Reeves, Ward, Pecos, and Terrell counties in the Permian Basin, in addition to all counties in the El Paso district. 

Truck drivers are valuable to our society. They are essential workers, and their rest is very important. Safe parking allows them to get the proper rest to continue working and driving well the following day.
