Geneva – The International Road Transport Union (IRU) and the
International Transport Forum (ITF) are pleased to announce the launch
of TRANSPark, a web-based platform providing a full range of services to all actors involved in goods transport by road.
TRANSPark enables truck drivers, logistics planners, transport
managers and others involved in road transport operations to search,
locate, select and contact truck parking areas in over 40 countries, -
from Portugal to Kazakhstan. Accessible free of charge on the IRU and
ITF websites, TRANSPark is also available in PDA format for easy use
from the truck cabin.
TRANSPark users can search for truck parking areas by country,
around a location within a 100-km radius, or along their planned
routes. All facilities available at the selected parking area are
listed (security features, truck repair, vehicle wash, hotel,
restaurant, etc.), and can be used as parking search criteria. Full
contact details and location maps are also provided.
Over 3000 truck parking areas are currently listed in TRANSPark,
some 1800 of which are GEO-identified. This figure is expected to grow
continuously, as additional data is supplied by drivers and parking
managers and verified by national authorities and IRU national member
associations to ensure data accuracy.
Other IRU services offered free of charge on TRANSPark help road
transport professionals comply with different countries’ legislations
and further road safety and security while saving time and money...at
no cost. They include:
- route planner;
- fuel prices in 40 countries;
- border waiting times;
- flash information on traffic restrictions, road works and blockades;
- IRU security guidelines and driver checklists;
- weather conditions at local, national and global level;
- currency converter;
- legal advice and support.
Under the current circumstances of economic crisis, fierce
competition and highly regulated operating environment, TRANSPark
offers significant competitive advantages to all its users.
