Construction for Second Marshall KwikTrip Begins in June

Marshall will soon see the construction of its second KwikTrip.

The second KwikTrip’s location will be at the junction of Highway 68 and Highway 59.

The project is expected to take approximately three and a half months, with work beginning in early to mid-June.
