Proposed Wawa filling station in Solomons Town Center
Calvert County
Summary
A Wawa with gas pumps is proposed near the Solomons town center, and neighbors worry 2,000+ daily vehicle trips will clog the two-lane HG Trueman Road access route and endanger pedestrians and cyclists heading to Calvert Marina. The board tabled the case until a traffic study shows how congestion and entrances will be handled.

Impact analysis
The developer would bear any road mitigation costs; the state, not the county, controls the affected roads.
Travelers on Route 4 would gain a new fuel and convenience option, and the property owner gains use of a long-vacant commercial site.
Neighbors and local businesses fear added congestion, safety risks for pedestrians and cyclists, and a change to Solomons' small-town character.
