A television station is reporting that travelers on Interstate 90 in Lake County can now use rest areas that have been redesigned.
Cleveland 19 News, in a story datelined Painesville, said the facilities are open and described them as part of a broader state program associated with Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine that is aimed at renovating and updating rest stops across Ohio.
According to the station, the sites contain displays focused on the state's natural history, its past and attractions in the surrounding area. The report also lists visitor amenities that include rocking chairs and storybook trails intended for children.
The account did not specify how many rest areas opened, their exact locations or highway exits, when the work began or what it cost. No opening ceremony, agency statement or project timeline was described in the item.
Readers planning trips should check current travel information, since the report gives no further detail on hours, construction activity or nearby services.
