The Buc-ee’s beaver is headed to the Rocky Mountain region.

Construction is progressing on the country store and gas station chain’s first travel center in Colorado, according to Denver Gazette news partner 9News.

Texas-based Buc-ee’s company held a groundbreaking ceremony in June 2022 to kick off construction at the new location north of the Denver metro area, in Johnstown, at the southwest corner of Interstate 25 and County Road 48.

Construction on Colorado’s Buc-ee’s has continued for more than a year. A building now towers over I-25 with rows and rows of gas pumps also under construction at the travel center, 9News reported.

Buc-ee’s said it hopes to open the new Johnstown location in spring of 2024.

The new Colorado location is planned to be 74,000 square feet, with 116 fueling stations and, of course, the chain’s award-winning clean bathrooms, according to 9News. All Buc-ee’s operate 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

Buc-ee’s has begun hiring for the Colorado store. Positions include cashier, merchandise associate, food service, warehouse stocker, grocery stocker, janitorial, human resources and management. Applications are being accepted online.
