This was in a NJ Rest Stop somewhere on Route 17 .  This is supposed to be ADA compliant and Handicap accessible!!  A wheelchair bound person could bump thaf waste pipe and get a Bath on their legs and lap.  They might also snag the Hot water flex, panick and yank it off the valve and Scald themselves.. 

I HOPE a Plumbing inspector didn't ok this and that it was done without inspection! Disheartening 😔...Mad Dog 🐕

I too look at the plumbing everywhere I go haha

When it looks like that, I usually assume it's the work of the business owner/homeowner.

Blue stripe flex is cold, red stripe flex is hot. What's the problem...lmao.
Look at the lath and plaster behind that eschutcheon.

Thanks for the insight @Mad Dog_2, Perhaps I could stop by there in my wheelchair and do just that. Big payday for me. The guy in the wheelchair always wins in a jury trial.

Probably a proximity activation mechanism (I don't know the industry name) to turn the water on when you put your hand under the faucet

What a masterpiece! Dollars to doughnuts, the NJDOT paid good money for that! Of course, it could be a temp repair to get thru Thanksgiving.

Box is for batteries and circuit board for sensor faucet. Thermostatic mixing valve, Max water temp 110. Is next to it
