Abstract:

The Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT) currently operates and maintains

81 rest areas, including 14 welcome centers, along freeways and other major roadways. Public

rest areas in Michigan serve a broad range of travelers, including vacation/recreational travelers,

commercial vehicle operators, commuters, motorcyclists, bus tours, and others. A majority of

travelers stopping at rest areas desire a restroom break or simply a stretch or short break. Other

patrons utilize rest areas for picnicking, vending machines, relief for children or pets, vehicle

maintenance, to change drivers, obtain travel information, or even sleep. Rest areas provide the

distinct advantage of quick access and facilities that are open 24 hours per day.
