Where are the rest stops located on highway I-57?
I have to travel for work and I spend a lot of time traveling along the I-57. It’s a long drive, and sometimes it seems I need a rest stop, but I can never find one when I need one. Where are they located?

It’s very aggravating not to be able to find a safe place to pull over when you need one! Let’s make sure that that doesn’t happen again! Here’s a list of where the rest stops are along Interstate Highway I-57:
- Trail of Tears Rest Area: Located 32 miles north of the Illinois/Missouri border at Mile Marker 32.
- Rend Lake Welcome Center: Located near Rend Lake at Mile Marker 74. The actual building is no longer operational, but the parking lot is open for drivers to pull over and rest.
- Post Oak Rest Area: Located about two miles south of Salem at Mile Marker 114.
- Green Creek Rest Area: Located about four miles north of Effingham at Mile Marker 165. This is another stop where the building is closed, but the parking lot is available.
- Illini Prairie Rest Area: Located about 14 miles south of Champaign at Mile Marker 222.
- Main Line Station Rest Area: Located about 18 miles north of Rantoul at Mile Marker 268.
- Prairie View Welcome Center: Located at Mile Marker 333. There building here is also closed. But the parking lot is available for emergency naps!
