The first station in Raleigh to offer both E85 and B20—the New Bern Crown Station at 1210 New Bern Ave.—is celebrating its grand opening March 12 with dignitary remarks and a ribbon-cutting ceremony to commemorate the official opening of its Village Post Office along the New Bern Corridor in the Redevelopment district.
The USPS announced the concept of the Village Post Office in July 2011 as a way to continue providing convenient access to postal products and services in more rural communities across the nation.
B20 has been used by the N.C. Department of Transportation for over a decade and is provided at over 100 state fuel sites. The New Bern Crown Express is the third station to provide B20 to the motoring public in Raleigh, and it’s the 28th across the state.
