Though TLG’s Peterbilt of Cincinnati location will be expanded by more than 47,000 sq.-ft., the company says customers will be able to enjoy the dealership’s existing layout with the benefit of more streamlined service flow and more industry-leading amenities — all with the same award-winning customer service TLG is known for. The project’s new additions, including offices, the service department, and parts showroom and warehouse, will be designed and built by Cincinnati Commercial Contracting.
“Revamping Peterbilt of Cincinnati to be state-of-the-art just makes sense for ensuring that our customers continue to be successful and our employees have a first-class facility to call home,” says General Manager Brad McDonald. “We’re thrilled to be able to represent customers, employees and the Peterbilt brand with a high-tech facility and better serve everyone in Cincinnati and the surrounding areas.”
The Cincinnati-area Peterbilt dealership’s first phase of construction will focus on a new 27,858 sq.-ft. office space that is slated to be completed in early 2020. In addition to serving as modern office space for current and future team members, the building will be a welcoming center for customers. The customer-facing portions of the building will feature casual seating and an open sales area as well as an extensive parts showroom for merchandise and displays. Intended to be a more welcoming and comfortable environment for walk-ins, TLG says the new space also will feature plenty of clerestory windows to maximize natural light.
Throughout 2020, construction will continue on the Cincinnati dealership’s upgraded Peterbilt service zone and will add nearly 20,000 sq.-ft. of space to the campus. It will receive 20 new service bays, bringing the total number of bays to 28. Of that total, two bays will be set up to serve CNG (compressed natural gas) vehicles. Technicians and management staff also will have access to an all-new tool and parts warehouse, which TLG says will ensure the resources drivers need to get back on the road are always just a few steps away. The service section also will be expanded to include a top-notch driver break room and lounge, as well as additional office space.
TLG says the dealership and its service building will remain open during its regular hours while construction is underway.
