What's happening
Located in a portion of the Texas Backyard area—where shoppers can find plants and other outdoor items—a temporary grocery-side entrance was opened on July 21.
In addition, the curbside pickup area was temporarily moved to the pharmacy side of the store.
Officials with the Bastrop Planning and Development Department confirmed both changes were put in place to construct a True Texas BBQ.
When finished, an expanded curbside area will be moved back near its original location—next to the True Texas BBQ spot, officials said.
Looking ahead
Other renovations shoppers can expect include:
- More pharmacy space
- Expanded produce area
- Renovated meat and seafood market
- Replacement of more refrigeration cases
- Expanded administrative offices and break areas for employees
Some context
The $30 million project began last summer with the expansion of the grocery store's parking lot.
In March, the fuel pumps were temporarily out of service while officials built a new kiosk that added a restroom area for employees.
When finished, the store will gain an extra 18,000 square feet of space; however, no timeline has been disclosed as of publication.
