JAMES CITY-The new Wawa convenience store and gas station in Lightfoot will open on June 10.

A general manager at the store confirmed news of the opening of the new Wawa, which is located at the intersection of Richmond and Lightfoot Roads.

Construction of the Wawa convenience store first began roughly two years ago. Wawa replaces an old Exxon gas station.

Since parts of the new Wawa are located within both James City and York counties, both counties’ Boards of Supervisors had to approve the project.

The new Wawa includes a convenience store with a food market, sandwiches, coffee, and more, as well as a gas station.

This will be the third Wawa in the Williamsburg area, with one located further down Richmond Road near the College of William & Mary and another on the other side of town on Merrimac Trail.

The New Local News Model

On July 1, we started a new way to pay for news. Yes, we want you to subscribe, but we know nobody subscribes to every site they visit just because there's a paywall.

So if you don't want to subscribe (even at the low price of $39.99 for a year), you can pay for access to individual articles. Or just buy a 24-hour pass, as if you were buying a single copy of a newspaper. We use a new payment service called Transact, which lets you pay for individual articles in as little as three seconds. And you will get $3 in credit when you sign up (just an email address, no credit card required), which will let you pay for at least 20 articles.

This is new for everyone, so we're going to ease you into this. Initially, there won't be many articles that you have to pay for. Short ones will always be free. And even the longer stories will let you read the first half or so for free. We'd love to hear what you think, so send us a note at feedback@peninsulachronicle.com.

The Peninsula Chronicle reports on business news on the Virginia Peninsula, from Williamsburg to Newport News and Hampton.
