SPRING ARBOR, MI – Construction has begun on a new place to grab some quick eats in Spring Arbor.

Taco Bell is constructing a new location at 8030 Spring Arbor Road. Workers are currently building out the interior and wrapping up the outside site work for the new location, Director of Construction Matt DaPra wrote in an email.

Taco Bell officials said they expect the restaurant will open in Spring Arbor in early October. Plans call for a 2,052-square-foot facility that will include indoor seating and a drive-thru, DaPra said.

Spring Arbor was considered for this Taco Bell location, as the fast-food chain is always looking to expand its footprint to other communities, DaPra said. Spring Arbor Township Supervisor Dave Herlein said a Taco Bell has been a popular request from Spring Arbor University students and township residents.

“Township residents have told me they’re looking for more shopping options, more eating options,” Herlein said.

Once the restaurant opens, people can expect to find the same Mexican-inspired menu items found at its other U.S. restaurants. The location will also hire around 40 to 50 people, DaPra said, adding applications can be found on Taco Bell’s website.

“We are very excited to bring delicious tacos to a new community,” DaPra said.

This is the fifth Taco Bell location to open in the Jackson County area, joining those at 2928 E. Michigan Ave., 801 W. Ganson St. and 2545 Airport Road in Jackson and 413 S. Main St. in Brooklyn.
