The Ashtabula Rest Area is one of our preferred stops headed West but the last 2 times we planned to stop there after a long day of driving, it was closed. It does look like it is finally open again now, but it would be nice to know for sure before heading that way.

CONNEAUT — A new rest stop and welcome center is expected to be completed this fall, according to the Ohio Department of Transportation. Ray Marsch, a spokesperson for ODOT, said work was initially scheduled to be completed this summer, but was delayed due to supply-chain issues.
“We’re currently working through [those issues], but we hope to have this rest area opened up this fall for motorists to be able to visit,” Marsch said.
The rest area, located north of Interstate 90 between the Pennsylvania state line and Route 7, was closed in 2021, and the old rest area was demolished.
