The Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) is moving ahead with a project to add a truck parking facility along I-80 near the Ohio/Pennsylvania state line next year.

ODOT recently announced plans to turn a shuttered rest area on westbound I-80 in Hubbard Township into a truck parking facility. Work is scheduled to begin in 2026.

The proposed truck parking facility would include 38 truck parking spaces, restroom facilities, lighting, a camera system, and green space.

The Hubbard Township truck parking project is to be paid for by a grant from the Nationally Significant Multimodal Freight and High Projects fund.

If you have comments or questions about the truck parking facility, you can reach out to Brian Peck, Environmental Specialist Ohio Department of Transportation District 4 at (330) 786-4931 or [email protected].
