The Snake River Rest Area, located on eastbound Interstate 84, just two miles from Ontario, serves as a vital first stop for many travelers entering Idaho.
Unfortunately, this rest area has been the target of repeated vandalism, with three separate incidents occurring in September alone.
The recent acts of vandalism include a shattered window, a broken glass door, and the destruction of a child changing area.
This rest stop not only provides essential public restroom facilities but also welcomes visitors to Idaho with its visitor center.
Facilities Operations Manager John Hall said, if you see someone acting suspiciously or damaging property, please speak up.
The Idaho Transportation Department urges anyone who witnesses vandalism to contact the Payette County Sheriff’s Office.
