Taco Bell on Old Alturas Road is gone.
Opened just before the turn of the century, the Taco Bell in front of WinCo was recently torn down. It took crews two hours to demolish it, which sent at least one mouse scurrying from the wrecking ball, per a worker who was part of the demolition.
A new Taco Bell is under construction that will feature the company’s Modern Explorer Design, one of four new architectural updates the company is rolling out. The others are Heritage, California Sol and Urban Edge.
The new-look Taco Bell is expected to open in late October.
