RALEIGH, N.C. — Buc-ee's, a travel destination known for its abundance of gas pumps and clean restrooms, may be coming to North Carolina and just down the road from the Triangle.

A site plan for a popular truck stop and massive roadside attraction has been submitted in Alamance County, which already hosts several travel plazas and large gas stations.
