According to a news story from Radio Iowa, a truck stop along Interstate 35 in northern Iowa near Williams that was known for 45 years as being a haven for truck drivers during Iowa blizzards will reopen soon under a new name. The Boondocks will return as a Travel Centers America Truck Stop. The Boondocks closed in 2018, and reopened as a Jay Bros truck stop in 2019, until it closed up again over a year ago. The nearby Boondocks Motel was demolished earlier this year. Social media posts stated there have been interviews for those wishing to be an employee at the former iconic truck stop in Hamilton County. A giant TA Truck Stop sign was recently installed. Officials with the Ohio-based firm have not announced when the official opening will take place.
