The Significance and Challenges of Expanding Logistics Infrastructure

Abstract

In recent years, truck drivers have been required to secure opportunities for reliable breaks and rest. This makes rest areas along expressways an important part of logistics infrastructure. However, expressway parking lots for heavy vehicles are congested during night hours. To relieve this, NEXCO has expanded parking lots by 10% over the past four years. In this report, I will categorize issues faced by NEXCO during their efforts so far and discuss plans that will be required in the future.
