The proposed legislation would establish a pilot program allowing States to permit commercial operations at existing or new rest areas on Interstate System highways as long as the State uses the net income to maintain the facility or for other eligible purposes under title 23, United States Code. Such commercial operations could include providing goods, services, and information that are of interest to the traveling public; State promotional or tourism-oriented items; and commercial advertising and displays (visible only in the rest areas). Under the proposal, States could permit private operators to run the projects under the pilot program.
