dc.description.abstractThe Flemish government launched two related projects in Belgium between 2020 and 2023. First, they rolled out an Intelligent Truck Parking Service (ITPS) along a part of the E17 motorway. Then we supported them to develop a vision on truck parking. The ITPS consisted of an app for truck drivers, combined with information on variable message signs. We evaluated the ITPS so as to provide answers to the following research questions: (i) which technology best measures parking occupancy? (ii) what is the impact of providing parking occupancy information to the truck driver? (iii) how do users deal with the information (user experience)? In order to evaluate the ITPS, we performed a technical analysis, an im-pact analysis, a user acceptance analysis, and performed interviews with stakeholders regarding the eco-system. In addition, the analysis of GPS measurements provided insights into used parking locations and occupancies for developing the vision.
