I-80 MM 51 Sidney Rest Area is closed. The restroom building has been removed, leaving a large concrete parking lot. Perhaps it’s destined as a future truck parking area with no amenities.
According to Nebraska’s 511 website, the rest area is temporarily closed due to long-term highway construction. It may be the rest area will be rebuilt, but I’ve not been able to find a press release announcing this.
Who do we contact regarding vendor at Sutherland eastbound rest stop who is ripping people off? R.R.Broughton, owned by Rhonda Broughton, has vending machine at this rest stop. You put in $5. for a $1.75 candy bar and get $1.25 back; vendor owes customer $2. Contacted by phone owner claimed she’s blind as the reason she didn’t get text. and said she’d mail the money asap. Have contacted 3 other times now, after not receiving our money, and gotten no response. This is a scam, and they are making a lit of money by cheating people every day. We want our money, and the license needs to be suspended while a full audit performed.
Very sorry about the delay, unfortunately there is nothing we can do as we are not affiliated with any rest area. You will need to contact the Nebraska DOT office. We have a list of all DOT offices in the U.S. on this website so should this ever happen again start there. But for this issue call 402-471-4567 and should you need their website it’s https://dot.nebraska.gov/

I80 MM 193 westbound Brady rest area is closed. MM 194 eastbound Brady rest area is open.
Restroom mile marker #61 Sidney westbound was very clean well stocked and they were cleaning them at 12:30pm
Maybe the rest area experience was poor for you as people don’t pick up after themselves and are quite untidy.
A big shout out thank you to those service workers who work so hard to keep the facilities clean.
If you’re a trucker looking for a spot to reset for the night or to get some much needed rest, there is a huge truck parking lot just up the road 2 miles north of exit 22. Plenty of room!
As we entered NE from CO on I-80 we stopped at the Ogallala rest area and found them to be a very poor entry welcoming us to the State of NE. The restrooms were not clean and in the age of COVID…no paper towels and no soap. Does NE not believe we have a national pandemic?
Pretty nasty I asked about other rest stops and lady who worked there didn’t know even the name of the next city.I came in to use handicap bathroom but even when I told the lady I was coming in to use she told me she was cleaning and come back later I had just been in and knowbody was around and it was clean I just said I guess I will have to go in but no need to clean my ostomy.She just ignored me I couldn’t use the WiFi ad it was too busy and then disabled.Horrid they need to do better

Here’s a thought. STOP CLOSEING THE REST EREAS!!! THERE ARE NOT ENOUGH TRUCK STOPS IN THIS STATE. THERE IS NO REASON TO CLOSE THE PARKING HALF! MAYBE WE NEED TO SEE ABOUT SUEING THE STATE.
Stop at Southernland west bound, men’s and women’s restrooms were disgusting, worst rest stop on our entire trip
Some rest areas are closed going West. Why? They were open in the eastern art of the state.
Agreed Lisa, would like to know why this is.
Do rest eaters have hrs. Have family driving eastbound close too 355 mark .
