There is a picnic area at Heston (M4) Eastbound.

There is also a current planning application to build 120 units of
affordable housing on it - which makes me think that not many people
picnic there.

Yes, but there are picnic areas at a good many other service areas -
that's not special. The point is, why not have just picnic/rest areas?
Why do we need, every single time, a petrol station/restaurant/expensive
shop? Obviously we do need those, but *every* rest area?
