In 2001 a rest stop was established for heavy vehicles with capacity for 21 semis and 15 trucks.  Facilities include restrooms, showers, a laundry facility and security service free of charge.  A calendar of health campaigns were then instituted to educate truck drivers about cholesterol, how to prevent back pain, diabetes, etc.  Participants also underwent pre-consultations with a nurse and were given tests including blood pressure, cholesterol and glycemia.  The area also offered vaccines ranging from Hepatitis B vaccine to flu vaccines.  Over the course of two years, the center has provided care for 3, 357 people.
