Residents of Monroe Township – a small town about 40 miles south of Detroit – are up in arms about plans to build a new truck stop along Interstate 75 there.

A group of investors has purchased 30 acres along the highway and plans to build a full-service travel plaza for cars and commercial trucks. The facility would include a restaurant and a fast food franchise as well as a convenience store, two parking lots, fuel pumps, a game room, truckers’ lounge and showers.

The facility will also feature electricity hook-ups so trucks won’t have to idle their engines at night.

The Monroe News reported that the residents of the town are concerned about traffic and road safety around the plaza. Residents have also expressed concerns about noise and pollution and have taken to posting signs all around the proposed site.

The only thing on the site is an abandoned gas station that hasn’t been used in more than 30 years.

But the investors say the plaza will bring value to the neighborhood and will create about 70 to 100 jobs.

If the project is approved, groundbreaking is expected to begin later this year.
