CVS

I chose CVS located on Spring Garden to do research on for this blog. I have been there many times and it always seems difficult. It is located on a fairly busy road with stiff competition located right across the street. A Walgreens was just opened on the corner of Spring Garden and Aycock.

Since this intersection is very busy, there are concrete islands near the turn lanes. This makes it difficult enter and exit CVS's parking lot because of these islands. It is somewhat of a good thing that this store is located in a busy area but with it being so close to the intersection,makes it hard to turn left to leave. It is located close enough to campus for students to walk so that is a definite plus.

I think CVS has a good location but I think the location may discourage some customers simply because it is hard to get there and be able to get out. Maybe they should have located the store a little bit further down the road to avoid all the traffic of the intersection. Plus the parking spaces are the kind that are facing diagonal and that adds difficulty for some people. I still shop at CVS though.
