(GREENWOOD) - Plans for Indiana's first Buc-ee's travel center are moving forward after a rezoning proposal was submitted for a site in Greenwood.
The proposal calls for development on an 80-acre site southeast of Interstate 65 and Worthsville Road. Plans include a 74,000-square-foot travel center on a 37-acre portion of the property, along with 120 fueling stations and electric vehicle charging facilities.
The rezoning request follows reports last November that Buc-ee's was nearing a deal to purchase the land.
The proposal is scheduled to be reviewed by the Greenwood Advisory Plan Commission on June 22. If approved, it would then move to the Greenwood Common Council for consideration.
Buc-ee's currently operates 55 locations nationwide, including 36 in Texas. The closest existing locations to Indiana are in Dayton, Ohio, and Richmond, Kentucky.
The chain is known for its large travel centers, extensive food and beverage offerings, clean facilities and branded merchandise.
