S 4362 United States Senate · 118th Congress

More Parking, More Hiking Act

This bill directs the Secretaries of the Interior and Agriculture to increase parking at federal recreational lands and waters (like national parks and forests) without harming wildlife or increasing agency maintenance costs. It authorizes agencies to partner with private entities, states, or local governments to create new parking on non-federal land, lease land for parking, or develop alternative transportation systems. The bill also requires exploring technology solutions like trailhead cameras showing real-time parking availability and data collection to plan future parking needs. These changes directly affect visitors seeking access to federal recreation areas and the agencies managing them.
