“Mobile app Trucker Path released an annual ranking of the independent and chain truck stop locations most preferred by the trucking community,” CDLLife reports. “The top honor this year went to the Ohio Turnpike Tiffin River Service Plaza located at mile marker 20.8 Eastbound on the Ohio Turnpike.” Truck parking, a lounge, free showers, a coin-op laundry, and lottery terminals are among the plaza’s amenities for commercial drivers. “Every day of the year, 24 hours a day, Ohio Turnpike Service Plazas are open to give truck drivers the best possible experience on the road,” said turnpike commission chief executive Ferzan Ahmed. “We are proud that the Tiffin River location has been recognized by drivers as the number 1 location in the nation for safe, clean facilities and services that truckers value.” (TRN inserted links in quoted text.)
Ohio plazas also got a recent shout-out from RVtravel.com, which stated, “They provide a convenient overnight stop with electric and dump station access at a very affordable rate.” On its website, Ohio Turnpike Authority promotes overnight RV parking at eight travel plazas.
