NORWICH – Two long-time gas stations in Norwich were seen undergoing a major change on Tuesday, Aug. 25, at approximately 1 p.m.

Both former Hess gas stations on Route 12, one just north the City of Norwich and the other just south, were closed, roped off and under construction, as it appeared a new company was to move in in its place.

“All I can say is that we did buy out the local Hess stations there,” said a Speedway LLC customer service representative when asked about the change.
