Services
Along Interstate 75 are 9 pairs of rest areas along the length of the freeway. In addition, there are separate facilities for each direction of I-75 in Hamilton (southbound) and Suwannee (northbound) Counties and a welcome center south of the state line. Exits 131 and 161 each have a single facility accessible from both travel directions on I-75, as well as the intersecting highway. Each rest area has rest rooms, vending machines, picnic tables, dog walk areas and nighttime security. The welcome center also has travel information and free orange juice.
Motorist-aid call boxes are located on both outside shoulders of the road every mile (1.6 km), and send a signal indicating the need for gasoline, repair (tire or engine), or emergency services (police, ambulance, or firefighters). Call boxes can also be found at some rest areas.

Famous quotes containing the word services:
“Working women today are trying to achieve in the work world what men have achieved all along—but men have always had the help of a woman at home who took care of all the other details of living! Today the working woman is also that woman at home, and without support services in the workplace and a respect for the work women do within and outside the home, the attempt to do both is taking its toll—on women, on men, and on our children.”
—Jeanne Elium (20th century)
“O, the difference of man and man!
To thee a woman’s services are due.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“Those services which the community will most readily pay for, it is most disagreeable to render.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
