Stopping for a break at a highway rest area may become more difficult.
The province is considering closing some of the highway rest stops in an effort to save money.
Pine Grove rest stop, along the TransCanada between Winnipeg and the Ontario border, is facing closure.
The provincial government feels that motorists would rather stop at a gas station to purchase goods and take a break.
A review of Pine Grove, is being conducted by the province, after receiving a petition to keep it open, however it was noted that the future of other rest stops will depend on how close they are to a private business.
