Wawa Coming to Wildwood, Rt 44

[champion6]

Plans have been submitted for a Wawa in Wildwood on Rt 44, just east of 301 -- on the south side of 44 between Wildwood Tire Co. and Wildwood Mower and Saw. It appears to have access from both 44 & 301.

It's about time! I don't know how we've survived this long with only two gas stations on that corner! Plus, this would also provide a cut-through to make a right turn off 301 without waiting for the light.

On the other hand, the two existing stations are not at all convenient to get into and out of without making U-turns and sitting through lights. This one would be marginally better.

I would say that three gas stations in the area would have been enough, but Wawa, Inc. knows their market and their appeal.

[Dr Winston O Boogie jr]

Not going to be golf cart accessible. That's my biggest disappointment in living south of 44. Everything is an excursion by golf cart.

There's a Mobil on the west side of 301 between 44 and the Turnpike. Got gas there when other stations were out a while ago.

Unfortunately, it doesn't appear to include EV charging spots similar to the one at 466/441.

It’s an efing gas station🤔🤔

How did you determine that? If anything, the blocks at the head of seven of the parking spots on the east side of the building make it look like those are different than the rest.

[GpaVader]

Is that going to take parking away from Oh Shucks?

[Keefelane66]

Is that going to take parking away from Oh Shucks?
It will probably cause the demolition of the Junk Store just north of Shucks

No, it’s not just an f-ing gas station. It’s Wawa. The quality of everything there is far better than all of the other convenience stores. Their coffee is great and the sandwiches as well. Also, I met my husband in nj Wawa and got married there too. So don’t knock my Wawa 😉😅. I’m :a040:!

I like Wawa hoagies.

We drive north to Wawa for special coffee, lattes, breakfast, and sandwiches. Good news it will be really close, Bad news, close enough to stop almost everyday

Not to mention the food and the coffee at Wawa is FAR BETTER

Golf cart excursions are the best.

[ithos]

It is the only place you can get a great salad for a reasonable price. You can choose spring mix among other great options. And they always have unsweet ice tea.

The new 7-11 will be golf cart accessible!

It’s STILL a gas station…nothing more. Y’all need to get out more.

Really? They don't sell coffee or sandwiches or salads or breakfasts? All these posters are confused about the store they were in or are just liars?

[airstreamingypsy]

Wait til you see Buc 'ees.

Well as for a cut through, that is a traffic violation. It's a moving violation ($177.00 and 3 points on your license). "Avaiding a Traffic Signal ". Enjoy traffic school

That's great. But what we really need around here are decent full service car washes. The only one is in Spanish Springs.

Great wash. You can get unlimited washes for 17.99$ a month. Free vacuum and sprays. You can also wash mats.

Sarcasm is hard to grasp sometimes.

But I'll let you know how that traffic school goes... after the WaWa is built and after I need to use that intersection and after I cut through the parking lot and after a cop has nothing better to do than sit there fishing for $177 tickets. Hope you have some time to wait - it will be a while.

I see 7 potential spots on the right side

Wawa does have excellent coffee and sandwiches but have noticed that price of refill coffees up a lot.

If you get married at a wawa do you get free coffee for life?

[Stu from NYC]

Not to mention the food and the coffee at Wawa is FAR BETTER

Thought you were not to mention that!:bigbow:

[JP]

Gee, I wonder if its construction is being subsidized by the government like all the electric charging stations. Somehow, I don't think so.

[dewilson58]

Traffic is terrible at that corner already.

Really needs more turn lanes.

:pray:

[kkingston57]

Wait til you see Buc 'ees.

Have 0, Zero, Nada reasons to drive to Ocala to go to a gas station whose reputation is that they have the cleanest bathrooms.

[END OTT]

It will probably cause the demolition of the Junk Store just north of ShucksJust a rumor waiting outside of Shucks with the Friday nite crowd
someone mentioned that the owner of O Shucks bought that lot and will expand. Waiting for the construction of 44 & 301 intersection to be done.
Won't be the same - hopefully better.

[JRcorvette]

What’s a WAWA????

[dewilson58]

Google is Ur friend.

[Stu from NYC]

What’s a WAWA????

Seriously? It is a very nice convenience stores with good coffee and excellent sandwiches.

However it will play second fiddle to Buccees

He said "decent". So far, in my search I have yet to find one I really want to go back to. JMHO, nothing more.

[Babubhat]

More stress on clay drain road. Yuk

[Jima72]

Overpriced deli food and could care less fast food employees keep me away from wawa.

Better? O'Shucks is as good as it gets, IMHO. Per usual, place gets bigger, fancier, loses its charm, raises prices, lowers quality, etc. Oh, well, it ain't up to me.

Just as long as they have those greasy hotdogs cooking on the grill for at least three days. YUMMY
