WOULD YOU PARK HERE? SITE PLAN FEEDBACK NEEDED.

Hey Truckers, I hope all is well with you. We have a 5.461 ACRE property here in Mansfield, Texas that we are going to build an 18-wheeler truck parking yard. Can you please take a moment to look through our site plan and share with me your feedback?

Lot specifications:
- We will be laying Flex base + Recycled asphalt as the surface for parking on.
- We will have bollards at the end of each parking space
- We will have 16 light poles to light the entire yard
- We will have a 24-hour automatic gate
- We will have security cameras throughout
- We will have a 6' chain link fence with 3 barbed wire strands
- It will have two parking spaces being (99) 75'x14' and (35 spaces) 25'x12'
- Pricing is estimated to be $150.00 - $175.00 per month.

What I am looking for in your feedback:
- What do you like about the site layout?
- What do you find to be difficult for you if you park here?
- How is the spacing between the isles and turn areas?
- What would you do different?
- What can we do to improve it?
- Any negatives you see right away?

Generally, I want you to tell me what you like, dislike and what I may need to change about this. All feedback is HIGHLY appreciated. Thanks in advance for your time!

 

I value all your feedback and appreciate your time. I hope your feedback helps me make this yard a successful one.

 

Pricing is aimed to be at $150.00 per month, no Guard Shack on site just a self-served facility. The 48' wide entrance is plenty of space, are you asking if that's going to be 48' wide or do you think there is something wrong with it? It is on 1187 Rendon Bloodworth.

 

It really depends on the operator for the facility. They should be on top of it, have legit cameras, check routinely, etc. It can still happen of course but at least the operator should give respect to the parking users and give them everything they can to help recover it. We are aiming for it to be $150.00 per month and yes it's in DFW. We are not trying to take advantage of any operators, it's just a need that many are requesting here so we want to provide that at a fair rate. What makes you feel it's too tight for your rig? What can we do to make it less tight or how much space are you thinking your rig needs? Which part is too tight. Please explain.

 

Which ones are considered the blind spot back spaces? I've heard this time and time again and still can't wrap my head around the difficulty with parking it. Can you point out which sides will be that and i'll see how to fix? Do you think the site seems to tight? Our isles are roughly 56' wide will that suffice for someone parking? What's your recommendations?
