The building, 2526 N. Neergard Ave., incorporates the company’s new facility design elements and includes four service bays, an automatic truck-washing bay and a two-lane fuel island with high-speed fuel pumps. Officials said the 14,000-square-foot facility is an upgrade from the Pennsylvania-based company’s previous location just down the street. The company’s 20 Springfield employees maintain nearly 400 vehicles on-site.
