This rest area is named after Herbert S. Miles, in recognition of his contributions to the State highway system over a 42 year career and his leadership as District Engineer in establishing the Safety Roadside Rest Area Program in California. There is a plaque dedicated to Herbert Miles as well as Blue Star marker in the northbound rest area (I did not find any dedication plaque in this rest area).
