Montgomerians have a new option available to fill up their tanks.

RaceTrac , which is headquartered in Atlanta, opened a new location in the Yellowhammer state's capital on Sept. 3.

The 8,000-square-foot facility at 5705 Troy Highway offers fueling and recharging options and a convenience store with made-in-store food, name-brand road trip snacks, and a frozen yogurt bar.

The company, which was founded in 1934 and currently operates over 800 retail locations, said that the area the new location is in will provide services "for over 20,000 professional drivers, commuters, residents and travelers that pass through the area daily."

The new location brings approximately 40 new jobs. More: 'Historic preservation and community pride': Partners restore downtown Coca-Cola mural
