Berkshire Hathaway’s Pilot Company, North America’s largest operator of travel centers, has broken ground on a new Pilot Truck Stop and Travel Center in Chicopee, Massachusetts. Located just off the Massachusetts Turnpike, the facility will create 90 jobs—70 full-time and 20 part-time—and is expected to contribute roughly $1 million annually in local tax revenue.
The project is part of Pilot’s ongoing expansion and investment in its network. In recent months, the company has opened new locations in Louisiana, Colorado, Texas, British Columbia, California, and Wisconsin, while also completing renovations at 11 existing travel centers across the U.S.
Pilot is also advancing its infrastructure for the future of transportation, adding EV fast-charging stations at 36 locations since March. The new charging sites extend Pilot’s coast-to-coast EV network to major routes across 35 states.
