Need to update old information
I continue to monitor press releases regarding rest areas but there has not been any further closures due to the virus. I believe all rest areas are open at the present time (except those closed for reasons other than the virus).
So unclear information on all sites, why not to make marks on the maps, what is open, what is not….. What are restrictions…. For me, for example, Alert stage “…” tells nothing
Are the rest areas open going South 95 to Florida in all states. Also if able to answer about gas stations on the exits it would be appreciated.
Go to your selected states you r traveling thru. This site gives a list of stops per state
Confuses a bit south n north bound. As much as 200 miles apart thru Florida on I 75
Order disposable urinal.
Want to leave from FL to NJ are rest ares open?
It doesn’t list all states. I’m looking for othe rest areas on I40 between the 15 and lake Havasu City
