The new Wawa at 1450 Upper Manatee River Road will be located close to the intersection of State Road 64 and Lakewood Ranch Boulevard.

The intersection is surrounded by several other businesses, including Publix supermarket, Beef O Brady’s, Acapulco Mexican restaurant, Subway, SunTrust Bank, Dunkin Donuts, McDonald’s, Bank of America, CVS Pharmacy and Walgreens.
