		The Oases Redevelopment Project, a $94 million, 25-year lease agreement between the Illinois State Toll Highway Authority and Wilton Partners/Exxon Mobil, was devised to dramatically revitalize the Oases for the thousands of daily commuters and vacationers using the tollway.
		The new Oases are more than twice as tall as their predecessors with 30-foot ceilings, and the views to the roadway have been restored to create openness and provide visitors with lateral views.
		The Hinsdale Oasis was completed one day ahead of schedule, which was important because of the need to finish before the onslaught of heavy Memorial Day traffic.

	Highway oasis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A highway oasis is a type of service plaza that is found along interstate highways that are toll roads.
		(One toll-free road in Kentucky has a service area that was grandfathered because it was built when its associated highway was a toll road.) The oases in Illinois have gas stations (Mobile), fast food restaurants (McDonald's, Panda Express, Subway, etc.), and other various stores (Krispy Kreme, Starbucks, TravelMart).
		Six of those oases in Illinois are unusual in that they are built directly over the interstate highway.

	Isuzu Oasis New Car Review: Isuzu Oasis LS ( 1998) New Car Prices for Isuzu Oasis
		Oasis is a pretty nice minivan to begin with.
		Configured as it was when we received it, the Oasis is a people mover, with three banks of seats; two captain's chairs in front, two captain's chairs in the middle and a bench seat in the rear.
		On the highway and once you're up to speed the engine is fine, but if you want to accelerate to pass someone the transmission downshifts and you get a huge amount of noise before anything happens.

	Oasis of Marr -- EQ Atlas
		The Oasis of Marr is a large desert area that lies in the middle of the Desert of Ro.
		The oasis itself is inhabited by crocodiles of all types, and the island in the middle has a temple that is surrounded by spectres.
		There is also the "Orc Highway" that provides some good training for grouping, as well as good loot and experience, and actually extends along the entire western edge of the zone and not just at the most packed area on the NW corner of the lake..

		If the formation is tight to the point where it is obstructing other traffic, that's grounds for the state police or highway patrol to stop the entire formation and cite everyone.
		Some examples are changing highways where the off and on ramps have significantly reduced speed limits and driving through rural areas where they may have traffic lights on the highway.
		A Highway Trooper who is unexpectedly confronted with a dozen or more cars may feel uncomfortable and decide to escalate the situation.

		Where in the previous buildings the view of the highways were blocked by the vendor restaurants, in the new buildings large expanses of glass are used to create a sense of openness, and to give patrons excellent views of the highway.

		Road noise is excessive at highway speeds too, though wind noise is minimal for a minivan.
		Because the Oasis is smaller than most minivans, and stands about 3 inches lower than a Nissan Quest or Mercury Villager, getting aboard and exiting are exceptionally easy.

		We'd visit the relatives in Wisconsin when I was a kid, and it was always a big treat to stop at the Belvidere, IL "oasis" on the way home.
		Seems to me I read a while ago that they were going to tear down the remaining "oases", although one of them (maybe the Belvidere "oasis") was going to be preserved because of its period architecture (mid to late 1950's).
		I wouldn't exactly call it an "oasis", but there was a restaurant built over the highway (it spans the interstate, and cars drive under) on I-44 halfway between Tulsa and the Missouri state line.

	Oasis or nightmare?: 3/9/97
		The granddaddy of countless islands of commerce at highway exits across America, it is presented at one of the East Coast's major crossroads as a refuge for truckers, a rest stop for drivers, a place to fill up the tank, to go to the bathroom, to eat, to sleep.
		Growth was gradual until the late 1950s, when the Interstate Highway System brought I-70 up from Washington and ran it into the turnpike, which was brought into the fold and christened Interstate 76.
		"Breezewood is a creature of the highway, by the highway, for the highway," says James Howard Kunstler, a vocal critic of highway development and author of "The Geography of Nowhere: The Rise and Fall of America's Man-Made Landscape."

		National standards guarantee the highway traveler that oasis facilities from state to state will be able to meet their needs.
		Ensure that “oasis” facilities have the same “look” by developing a uniform name and logo for designation of these facilities in order to ensure highway users traveling from state to state can easily recognize these facilities.
		Highway users are guaranteed a safe, clean place to stop. In addition, the inconvenience of not having a rest area directly on the highway is more than offset by significantly increasing the number of designated stopping facilities.

		The Federal Highway Administration has issued its final recommendations on the so-called Interstate Oasis Program, but it doesn't assure any more parking spaces for heavy trucks, or even guarantee as many parking spaces as there are now.
		The program, which was included in the 2005 Highway Bill and signed into law in August 2005, is a response to a growing trend among states in shutting down public rest areas along interstates.
		Under the Oasis plan, highway signs will divert traffic to a participating truck stop or other privately owned facility that provides fuel, food and public telephones, and is within three miles of the highway.

	History & Architecture: Arkansas Historic Preservation Program
		At the same time that the new bridge for U.S. Highway 70 was under construction, a new bypass route for the highway around the downtown area and the historic African-American neighborhoods of South Memphis was being constructed.
		Motorists were using this highway network at far greater rates than ever before; it is of little surprise, therefore, that businesspeople of various levels of aspiration and financial capacity began to look at Memphis as a travelers’ hub in the twentieth century’s consumer culture.
		In May of 1944 the Arkansas State Highway Commission and the Department of Highway and Public Works of Tennessee, with the approval of the Bureau of Public Roads, hired the firm of Modjeski and Masters for the “‘checking of contractors’ details” and the supervision of construction.

		Mother Nature was not a tidy housekeeper of the trail we walked; the oasis littered with debris was a welcome shelter for birds, animals and plant nurslings.
		The old Twentynine Palms Oasis, now called the Oasis of Mara, with water rising to the surface along a section of the Pinto Mountain fault, formed a desirable environment for three native tribes, Serrano, Chemehuevi and Cahuilla.
		It was hard to leave the cool and easy life of the Oasis with its Fan Palms standing firmly fixed against the sky as if the ancient ones had landscaped the desert with a tapestry woven from golden thatch and green fronds.

		Adequacy of Access Route to Oasis: The draft policy stated that an Oasis facility must be safely and conveniently accessible, as determined by an engineering study, via highways that are unrestricted as to vehicle weight or type, size, or weight.
		The single word ``Oasis'' is specified rather than the two-word phrase ``Interstate Oasis'' in the interest of legibility, to maximize the size of the letters used within the business logo.
		Definition of Interstate Oasis An Interstate Oasis shall be defined as a facility near an Interstate highway but not within the Interstate right-of-way, designated by a State after meeting the eligibility criteria of this policy, that provides products and services to the public, 24-hour access to public restrooms, and parking for automobiles and heavy trucks.
