“I did hear that the Environmental Commission had concerns about that,” Cornforth said.

More Call for federal investigation of Amazon worker injuries, critics gather at Logan site “But they all three (should) be successful and independent of each other based on our analysis of picking his site.” “Those two stores may see a little bit of business that leaves,” Cornforth said. The new store would give the convenience chain three sites within 3.5 miles of each other, each advantageously near major roads and highways. It also has a store on Paulsboro Road, just off Route 322, in Woolwich Township. Wawa’s other store in Logan is on Center Square Road, near Exit 10 of Route 295. Route 322 traffic is a major route for summertime vacationers headed toward the Jersey Shore, another reason Wawa was interested in the site. The site is about a half mile east of Bridgeport and the Route 130 interchange, with the Commodore Barry Bridge to Pennsylvania just a little farther. The property is at the northeast corner of Route 322 and newly constructed Crossroads Boulevard. The park owner is subdividing about 5.16 acres for the store, which like others its size will have 16 fuel dispensing stations as well as two electrical vehicle charging stations.
