Since 2005, rest areas of expressways have been opened to the local communities to increase the number of visitors. This study focused on the space use and management of these open-style rest areas. We clarified follows; 1) most of the rest areas are opened to local communities by renovating the existing facilities, 2) there are some advanced cases that local governments or companies collaborate to manage rest areas, 3) local residents visit rest areas not only to fulfill their everyday needs but also for other various purposes, 4) there are some problems in accessibility or equipment for users from local areas.
