Another Buc-ee’s travel center could be coming to Georgia. Here’s what we know.

Attention Columbus: if you like Beaver Nuggets and the “cleanest restrooms in America,” then you may have another Buc-ee’s stop to make soon.

A Buc-ee’s location is in the works for Middle Georgia in Monroe County, Georgia, and here’s what we know:

“Buc-ee’s is actively pursuing a location for our next Georgia store in Monroe County,” said Stan Beard, Jr., director of real estate for Buc-ee’s.

The proposed location is on Rumble Road in the Smarr/Forsyth area, off I-75 in Monroe County next to Meadows Gun Club.

Beard told the Telegraph that there’s “plenty of work still to do, and planning steps to complete,” but that Buc-ee’s “is excited about the opportunity.”

Monroe County Commissioners will hold a meeting in December to vote on the proposed plan, which will include a 74,000 square-foot facility and 120 gas pumps.
