Indiana rest area project will more than double interstate truck parking

10 years seems a long time to build parking spots that will fall far short again of what is required.

 

That’s great news! Hiking trails and modern facilities too.

 

What they need a rest area for ? 70 is already a parking lot .

 

So 10 years to create under capacity lots. By the time it's done. They'll be too small.

 

This is a nice reminder that truckers will find a way to ##### about anything. lol.

 

Yep. Whaaa

 

275 million to revamp rest areas? That seems like a bit much

 

You're forgetting the bribes and kick backs.

 

Simple math shows us thats a little over 17 million per rest area. To add 1400 spaces total. Which is 87.5 spaces per rest area. Which comes down to around $195,000 per space..... Does it really cost this much to build truck parking? I think every truckstop would go broke if it cost that much.
