Villanova-based Provco Pineville Acquisitions is looking to build a combination Wawa gas station and convenience store on the Newtown Bypass at Silver Lake Road. The planning commission is expected to discuss Provco's request for a special exception and variance from the zoning hearing board to move ahead with the project.
