TIP opens its first safe and secure truck parking area

TIP achieves the construction of its first Safe and Secure Truck Parking Area (SSTPA) due to open in April 2019: DELTA PARK A1 / E17 – Safe & Secure Truck Parking Area. The opening ceremony will take place on April 4th.

This site, located 30 km south of Lille (France), is at the junction of the A1 / E17 and the A21, the busiest road junction in Europe with more than 25,000 trucks passing through the area daily. It will provide a practical answer to the problems of securing flow of merchandise (thefts, attacks on drivers, accidents, etc.) while limiting parking on hard shoulders.

The car park will provide 150 spaces allowing the driver to rest in the best conditions of safety and comfort:

  •  24/7 security with human presence,
  • Thermal camera surveillance, 
  • Truck and pedestrian access control, 
  • Rest area offering a wide range of services (showers, restaurant, wifi, laundry, etc.)

The major payment modes used in Europe will be accepted (Direct Debit, Fuel Cards, Tele Badge).

This SSTPA is part of a 7-hectare multi-service truck center, which also includes: 

  • a TIP branch for trailer rental and a workshop for HGV repairs (mechanical, bodywork) 
  • a ‘Best Of Pneu’ branch for tire maintenance These branches are already open for service.
