Sustainable Rest Area Design and Operations
The U.S. Federal Highway Administration has released a report that incorporates sustainable practices at highway rest areas by highlighting case studies from various state departments of transportation. Highway rest areas provide drivers with a safe place along the highway to stop and take a break, though many were constructed in the 1950s and 1960s and are therefore in need of renovations. This report identifies how to modernize rest areas by incorporating sustainable practices into rest area design and operations.
