Commuter Parking Lots Rising
by Angela Smith
Tuesday, September 2, 2008

Commuter parking lots along Missouri highways are more popular than ever. That's according to latest figures released by the Missouri Department of Transportation.

More than 3,000vehicles utilized a state-maintained commuter lot on a typical workday in May. That is up 21 percent from February.

A MoDOT engineer says gas prices are encouraging more and more people to park and ride.

There are 106 commuter lots statewide located at access points along major highways.
