The Problem
A challenge that affects everyone – but no one can solve alone:
Truck drivers spend hours searching for parking spaces. It costs time, money, and nerves.
The Initiative
We join forces: politics, industry, research, and startups are creating a scalable, data-driven standard for truck parking search – open, sustainable, for everyone.
On board: DLR, Toll Collect, and the German Federal Mobility Data Platform (Mobilithek).
The Process
One year – one problem – one ecosystem.
Politics, research, industry, and startups join forces to tackle an urgent mobility issue holistically:
Data Provision: Mobilithek & DLR
Innovation Development: Startups & technology partners
Reach: Associations & political communication
Validation: User feedback & live testing
The Result: A new standard for truck parking search – scalable, data-driven, practical.
Kick-off: at IAA MOBILITY 2025
