US-61 truck parking in numbers
US-61 has 3 public truck parking sites in the federal inventory, with 22 truck spaces across 3 states. That is an average of 7 spaces per site, against a national median of 15 for all public sites, so the sites on this route are smaller than typical.
The most spaces are in Wisconsin (10, 45 percent of the route), then Minnesota (6). The fewest are in Mississippi, with 6 at 1 site.
The largest site is Safety & Weight Enforcement Facility #11 in Wisconsin, at mile 1, with 10 truck spaces.
These are capacities from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics inventory, not live availability, and private truck stops are not included. The hours of service guide explains why the 14-hour window, not the 11 hours of driving, decides where you need a space, and truck parking by state compares US-61 with the other interstates.
