The Middletown Township Board of Supervisors approved the plan in July 2020.

The approve plan includes significant upgrades to the parking area and stormwater management system on the 1.6-acre property. In addition, Panda Express will add a sidewalk along East Lincoln Highway to improve pedestrian access.

Panda Express, which is known for its American-Chinese cuisine, operates over 2,200 locations globally.

The diner was originally named the Blue Fountain Diner and underwent a name change in 2017 to honor the former Langhorne Speedway, a popular racetrack from 1926 to 1971.
