In another effort to reduce the spread of the coronavirus, Wawa is asking customers to limit how far they lower their windows when fueling up at its stores.

New signs are being placed at all Wawa gas pumps in New Jersey asking that customers lower their passenger-side window — not the driver’s window — by three inches to communicate with fuel attendants.

“This temporary procedure is being made in an effort to maximize distance between customers and associates at Wawa’s full-service fuel courts in New Jersey,” the company said in a press release.

Attendants will also wear gloves and continue sanitizing all kiosks and fuel pumps on a frequent basis, officials added.

Wawa has already temporarily ended self-service for coffee, fountain beverages and other drinks at all of its stores, and employees are now bagging bakery product for customers.

The stores are also closing between 2 and 3 a.m. each morning for cleaning and restocking.

The company has temporarily closed a few locations because of the virus.

Wawa announced Wednesday that it temporarily closed a location in Cherry Hill after an employee tested positive for COVID-19. It previously closed a location on Berlin-Cross Keys Road in Gloucester Township for the same reason.

Company officials said the stores undergo extensive cleaning before reopening and any employees who had contact with the infected workers are advised to self-quarantine per federal guidelines.

New Jersey has now reported 22,255 coronavirus cases and 355 deaths, according to a Wednesday afternoon briefing. Worldwide, more than 900,000 cases and 45,000 deaths have been reported.

Wawa has installed these signs at its New Jersey fuel pumps in an effort to promote social distancing during the coronavirus pandemic.
