I’ve been stuck in the Centerville rest area for 3 hours after visiting ohio because my car broke down. Nice rest area though.
There must be a lot of constipated people traveling through Indiana due to the lack of rest stops. When they are closing one for renovation, why not put in porta johns, and also allow parking. Just because the building is closed why close off the parking.
You really need to raise the toilet paper holders. I think the 3ft is for the single roll open dispenser not a double large roll dispenser bottom dispensing. Even a skinny person has trouble reaching the paper. I would suggest that you place the bottom at the spot you hff ave the top at or higher
I personally think it nuts to close up REST AREAS .what is the reason for this
I don’t know what particular rest area(s) the previous poster was angry about being closed but there are various reasons for rest area closures. Some may temporarily close for large maintenance issues like repairing water or sewer lines. Some may permanently close due to lack of use or funding. Some will close, be demolished, and then rebuilt to add more truck parking spaces or other features.
The rest stops were being abused for sex and drug hookups. Many became public nuisances.
Thank you for no warning of rest area being closed other than 500 yards before it. We already are limited on places to park so thank you no better yet **** you.
