“Operation Refresh reflects TA’s dedication to providing our customers with the best maintained facilities in our industry,” said Tom O’Brien, president and CEO. “Well-maintained, large, convenient facilities, the widest assortment of amenities and services available, and welcoming, friendly employees will allow TA to set a new standard in interstate travel hospitality for our customers.”
