Love’s Bennett Colorado expanding parking

Long overdue for that location

 

I like that both loves and pilot are building. But they mainly just build small little fueling points, not actually truck stops. Those little 5 fuel islands and 30 parking spaces with 3 showers inside type of places. By 6pm there is no parking and the showers have ran out of hot water. So to add on when it could have been a bigger location in the first place. Yea thats retarded to me.

 

It probably a good way of getting it by the local zoning broad get approved for 30 trucks then add a 130 parking stops later.

 

There's a new QT across the road from loves in Bennett, so they've been having price wars on fuel which is nice.

 

Probably the only way that the truck stop giants can get approval for any new construction is to limit the size of each stop. If they went into a meeting requesting 150 parking spots, 12 fuel islands, sit down restaurant, etc. they might be rejected upfront. Look at the new Petro franchise scheduled for Monteagle, Tn. that has been approved by city council but fought by the locals who do not want it. They blame water run-off and noise but I think that it will proced.
