Citing a steep incline, the Iowa Department of Transportation has made the decision to close a parking-only rest area that is mainly used by truckers in Warren County, Iowa, for the winter.

The rest area, which is located at mile post 51 on southbound Interstate 35, will be closed starting Nov. 4. The site is expected to reopen in late March 2014.

Probably at the request of the casino 20 miles down the road.

Nah...that's a bad'n anyway. Cold truck, 1.5 mile uphill grade on 2 lanes ?

Plus there's only room for 6 if we squeeze together.
