Teepee Design Approved for SD Interstate Rest Areas PIERRE South Dakota's super highways might more properly be called "Sioux-per" highways after Wednesday's highway commission meeting.

The commission approved a tepee-type design for use in the four major rest areas to be built along Interstate 90 and Interstate 29. The unique design incorporates 40-foot tall precast concrete ribs to simulate a teepee frame, with toilet and water facilities in a semi-circular dugout building in a hillside behind the tepee. The U.S. Bureau of Public Roads has approved the preliminary design and will pay 100 per cent of the cost under the new highway beautification law recently passed by Congress. Highway Commissioner J.

W. Burns of Rapid City said the design was chosen because it is uniquely South Dakota in concept and reflects the many cultural influences of the Sioux Indians on the state. The tepee park was designed by Ward Whitwam Associates, a Sioux Falls architectural firm. The firm was hired to do the designing because the BPR is urging states to be more creative in efforts to beautify highways and serve the traveling public. "We think this design is far superior to park designs of other states because it is not only attractive, but has historical as well," Burns said.

The four major rest areas will be constructed on Interstate 90 near Wasta, near Chamberlain and south of Salem. The Interstate 29 park will be located somewhere between and Waterlown. Facilities in the lour major complexes will include hot andj cold water, heated rest rooms, an information areas and an office for motor patrol use.
