Pilot Travel Center #297 (Lathrop)

What they do. Who they serve.

Pilot Travel Center #297 sits on Roth Road in Lathrop, California, along Interstate 5 in the heart of the Central Valley's distribution corridor. Open around the clock, this location serves drivers hauling between the Bay Area and the Central Valley or moving freight through one of California's busiest logistics belts. The facility offers 24-hour diesel fueling, DEF, and dedicated truck parking, making it a reliable staging point for early morning warehouse appointments or late-night turnarounds. Lathrop's position near major distribution hubs and the I-5/I-205 interchange means steady traffic, especially during peak shipping seasons. The stop handles high volume but keeps fuel islands accessible for drivers on tight schedules. It's a practical choice for owner-operators and fleet drivers who need fuel, rest, and a dependable place to park between runs up the valley or across to the Altamont Pass.
