| Buc-ee's will open second Ohio location. It is eyeing Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania for new locations. |
In Spring 2027, Mansfield, Ohio will be the second location for the ever growing Buc-ee's convenience gas plazas.
The city approved annexing over 100 acres of land at the corner of Interstate 71 and Ohio 39 exit ramp. The location is going to be approved.
The rise of gas stations have become a gentrification issue.
Mansfield is a rust belt city with 45,000 residents. It is the midway between Columbus and Cleveland. It also has the famous Lincoln Highway which aligns with the U.S. Highway 30.
Interstate 71 passes near the city.
In April, Buc-ee's will open its first Ohio location in Huber Heights near Dayton.
It was approved in 2024 but had delays.
The city approved the location and it got the groundbreaking in early 2025. It was expected to open in late 2025 but legal issues held it up. Water services will be provided by Clark County and the city of Huber Heights will annex land to accommodate.
Huber Heights put a hold on a QuikTrip and second Wawa location. They issued a formal pause on new licenses on gas stations.
Speedway/7-Eleven, Sheetz, Wawa, Casey's and QuikTrip are aggressively building locations in the Dayton/Springfield metro area.
Once the ground is broken, the city will have to pay for remodeling the interchange to make access to Buc-ee's easy.
The grand opening of Buc-ee's in Huber Heights will bring 200 permanent jobs and it will have 120 fuel pumps. It will be open 24/7 and be a major focal point for travelers between St. Louis, Indianapolis, Cincinnati and Columbus.
