Abstract

Recommendations have been derived for the layout of lorry parks in which the parking stalls are at 45o to the aisles. Using computer models, the minimum requirements for vehicles to enter and leave stalls without reversing or encroaching on other stalls, were determined. Trials were carried out on a test track in order to check the accuracy of these predictions and to estimate the tolerances necessary to allow for driver error.
