I agree with EMD. Add a Walmart and restaurants will follow. Build a Walmart.

I’m glad to see it finely coming to give Tom Thumb some needed competition. As for Crabtree Church Road the only way to fix that mess is to turn it just south of the tomthumb and connect to 29 and make a new entrance to the tom tumb

Wonder if the gas prices will be competitive with other large suppliers in the area? Or will it be marked up 0.10 per gallon like the N. Hwy 96 station? .10 cents on average higher then the Atmore location just 3 miles north. Prices should be competitive in close proximity to others in the area to allow a full range of choices for the consumers. This location is the closest for us for fuel and little items and another option if not a larger retailer would at least keep each other competitive if done right.

@ben

I agree with you, it would be better on the northbound side of 29, less people crossing over through traffic.

Gonna put a hurting on Tom Thumb . They’ve been taking advantage of locals with their ridiculous gas prices for years. About time

hey, if you moved out here in seventytwo or seventythree, alot of time has passed and you really can’t expect for there not to have been some change. the population has exploded with women pumping out babies like that is their mission in life, good thing is we have many, many millions of acres to spread out in, albeit maybe at the expense of crop producing space.
take for example Japan, even with their efforts at population control, it is mostly too late for them, they are living stacked on top of each other. the USA should learn from this but probably won’t. by the time the roads around here are all expanded, it will be time to expand them again.
the earth will not catch a break, and eventually nature will have to correct itself with some sort of plague. this won’t happen for many lifetimes, though.

it would help if it was on the north bound side of 29.

It’s interesting to read the comments here. Some people want a Walmart or other brick and mortar big box stores. Some people want Mayberry. Urban sprawl would dictate that the growth continues Northward.
