GRAND JUNCTION, Colo. (KKCO) -- Another option for food-on-the-go is just about ready to open its doors and drive-thru to hungry Grand Valley customers.

Wednesday, Del Taco welcomes the first of several planned locations across the Western Slope.

Franchise owner H.B. Mason says he's excited to bring Del Taco to Grand Junction and plans to open two to three more in town. His ultimate goal is to oversee 10 throughout western Colorado.

The first location at 2513 Highway 50 will have a ribbon cutting on Tuesday at 4 p.m.
