Update September 13th, 2026 #cheltenhamservicecenter looks about ready to opened and fully operational this Monday with the canopy installed and parking lot repaved, judging by the photos, I recently obtained for Brandywine MDcom, Brandywinemd.com and #cheltenhammd and surrounding area customers.

Cheltenham Service Center gas pumps were destroyed in a fire after a driver lost control of her vehicle in a single car accident, 6 months ago.. This time the pumps have security bollards installed hopefully these safety measures will make it safer for the motorists and protect the pumps from being totally dislodged by vehicles accidents being so close to route 301.

Marlboro Volunteer Fire Department On 01/03 around 03:14hrs, Rescue Squad 20 was dispatched to Hazmat Box Alarm 45-05 for a vehicle into gas pumps at Crain Hwy & Frank Tippett Rd. The driver suffered minor injures, and there was no extension to the storefront. Below are pictures of before & after.Cheltenham Service Center gas pumps were destroyed after Cheltenham Service Centerd crashed and a fire resulted.Female driver reported to be in stable condition. Shared from a Nextdoor member. Stopped by and asked what happened. A 20 year old female, driving a 2026 Camry, fell asleep, hit the sign letting you know that it’s a traffic light ahead, hit a pole and then the gas pumps. Of course the gas pumps ignited a fire and destroyed all gas pumps. She’s in the hospital without life threatening injuries. The repair shop is still open for business but it will be a while before the pumps are replaced and operable. Before picture #2I noticed in pic. #2, no security bollards were installed around the pumps. The owner should look into installing bollards, when the pumps are replaced.I had my car serviced by the lead mechanic in the past, he is very meticulous, which is what you want in a mechanic. I enjoyed conversating with the owner, does anyone have the owner and lead mechanic names, I don’t remember?
