Intelligent transportation system company Streetline has expanded its advanced Truck Parking Information Management System and ParkerTruck mobile app to help truckers find parking along the Interstate 5 corridor in Washington.

The company has partnered with the state on the project, which provides drivers with real-time and predictive information about parking space availability along the interstate.

The expansion builds on a recent similar deployment along Interstate 10 in California and Arizona. The system uses AI-enabled cameras and machine learning to monitor truck entries and exits, calculate occupancy in real time and share data through digital highway signs as well as an app.

“Every truck driver knows the daily stress of exhausting their operating hours and finding a safe place to park. Streetline’s system along the I-5 is a clear game changer,” said Bill Aboudi, president of AB Trucking, a west coast freight carrier. “It gives peace of mind and helps carriers operate more efficiently while keeping our drivers safe. This is exactly the kind of smart investment states need to support the supply chain.”

“The I-5 corridor is the backbone of West Coast freight movement,” added Taso Zografos, CEO of Streetline. “Our mission is to accelerate the deployment of advanced technology to help truck drivers smartly find parking easier and make our freight corridors more efficient and resilient. We have a lot of interest from private equity firms who see the value in smart parking and enabling the safe and secure movement of goods and services across the United States.”
