Looking at the photo and the site, it looks like there will either be another way into BJ-s or you'll have to take right where you take a left to get to the road that runs behind Cracker Barrel.

I honestly don't see a problem.
I take it all the time too (I live around 8 blocks from the gate into that back road).

Don't forget though that big apartment complex behind Lowes's isn't even at 1/4 occupancy yet. There are 120 apartments for rent at the moment, and 100 of them are 2-bedroom - so assuming double occupancy on those, that's another 200 people living in that back complex. Up to an additional 200 people travelling at any given moment up and down that road along the side of Lowe's, where the road behind Wawa's ends. It's listed as "pet friendly" so assume some of them will be walking their dogs.

I also see there is definitely a golf cart path across from that back entrance to Lowes, but I'm not sure where it will come out on the other side once it's finished. I just know there's a sign there that says "Golf carts only." Currently I don't think it goes anywhere.
