The Angola Service Area on the I-90, located between exit 57A (Eden – Angola) and exit 58 (Silver Creek - Irving - NY Routes 5, 20 & 438), has officially reopened, the New York State Thruway Authority announced Tuesday.

The updated service area now features Shake Shack, Chick-fil-A, Panda Express, three Starbucks locations, including two drive-thrus, Applegreen C-Store and Taste NY products, along with new outdoor seating, dog walking areas, private nursing area and digital tourism kiosk.

Cinnabon and Auntie Anne's will open soon and four Level 3 high speed EV chargers are set to be installed. 

“We’ve reached another milestone in the Service Area Redevelopment Project, as motorists can now enjoy a seamless trip on the Thruway with every new service area open from Albany to the Pennsylvania State line,” Thruway Authority Executive Director Frank G. Hoare, Esq. said. “The project is nearing completion with one location left to open, and it marks the Thruway Authority’s commitment to modernizing our transportation system and enhancing safety and reliability on the system.”

The location is the 26th service area to reopen to customers as part of the $450 million private investment to redevelop and modernize all 27 service areas.
