BY ADAM DAIGLE | Acadiana business editor Now that the ink has dried on the sale papers and the dust has settled on the Buc-ee's deal to open in Lafayette, I started to do some digging. Lafayette actually beat out two other cities for the deal. There's a significant amount of roadwork that's going to happen to go with it (get this: a traffic signal at the intersection just south of I-10). But the consensus was that this: that area is becoming a regional commercial draw, and some hope Buc-ee's is the thing that brings more to the area. You can read my story here. Have a great day and thanks for reading. |
