Mr Mark Lee asked the Minister for Transport
a. what is the number of licensed heavy-vehicle parking lots available to third-party vehicles, by region;
b. what are their Vehicle Parking Certificate allocation and actual overnight occupancy rates; and
c. whether LTA has assessed if their geographical distribution corresponds with the principal industrial and logistics areas where heavy commercial vehicles are based and deployed.
Reply by Minister for Transport Jeffrey Siow:

3. The Government will continue to monitor the heavy vehicle parking situation and take steps to ensure the geographical distribution of supply can meet demand.
Note
[1] A lot is considered “utilised” if: (i) a heavy vehicle has been assigned to park in it, or (ii) it is reserved for the Park Operator’s own fleet, tenants, or logistics partners, etc, and is therefore not publicly accessible to third-party vehicles. For (ii), operators can make the lot(s) publicly accessible if they wish to do so.
