The $47-million, 74,000-square-foot Buc-ee's in San Marcos will break ground next week. It will be one of the largest locations in Texas.

According to the release, the San Marcos store will also employ at least 200 people. In 2024, Buc-ee’s broke ground on its first locations in Virginia, Mississippi, and Ohio, the release added. The travel center also began construction on its third locations in Georgia and Tennessee.

In Arizona, the city of Goodyear recently confirmed that Buc-ee's started site grading to prepare the property for utility work and construction. Buc-ee's is expected to open its first location in the state along Interstate 10 by the end of 2025.

San Marcos will soon add another I-35 tourist attraction as Buc-ee’s begins construction on its newest travel center, which will feature familiar staples like barbecue, fudge, kolaches and Beaver Nuggets.

Buc-ee’s will break ground on a new travel center Jan. 29 in San Marcos, Texas. The chain—known for the “world’s cleanest bathrooms,” fresh food and beaver mascot—will celebrate the start of construction with a ceremony attended by local leaders including San Marcos Mayor Jane Hughson and County Judge Ruben Becerra, among others, it said.
