Plans are underway to build a multi-million dollar truck stop in New London.

Officials with Love’s Travel Centers announce construction is expected to begin next spring on a $10-million dollar transportation center at the northwest corner of the Highway 61-Missouri 19 interchange.

The complex will feature fueling stations, a convenience store, a Hardee’s restaurant and a tire care center.

The travel center is expected to bring 50 part-time and full-time jobs to the area.

Love’s has 350 locations throughout the country, including eleven other travel centers in Missouri.
