Truckers face problems finding a place to park

GREENWICH -- A Byram man who has been lobbying for 10 years for a crackdown on truckers parking on the shoulders of Interstate 95, believes his efforts may at last be bearing fruit. From a window of his Ritch Avenue West Byram home, John Bowman can see the northbound on-ramp of exit 2 on I-95 and the truckers who would spend the night sleeping in their vehicles.
"Sometimes at night there would be 30-40 trucks and also early in the morning," he said.
But weeks after the state Department of Transportation placed 26 signs in about a 1.5 mile-long stretch of I-95 from the New York state line to just south of exit 3, he said there have been fewer trucks parked along that stretch.
