BD CONSTRUCTION STARTING ON STEEL STRUCTURE FOR SHOEMAKER'S TRAVEL PLAZA
Released On: May 27, 2009

BD Construction of Kearney, Nebraska, has started construction on Shoemaker's Travel Plaza in Lincoln, Nebraska, located at 4800 West ‘O’ Street. BD Construction is partnering on this green building with Kingery Construction, prime contractor for the project, from Lincoln.

BD Construction will furnish and erect the pre-engineered steel structure for the 29,000 square foot truck plaza. “The complexity of the design will make this a challenging, but rewarding, project,” according to Mark Benjamin, president of BD Construction.

The travel plaza will consist of diesel and gas fuel pumps, a Shoemaker's Restaurant, a fast food restaurant, and full services for truckers including showers and laundry. The plaza will have three distinct elevations for the fast food restaurant, convenience store, and Shoemaker's Restaurant. The facility will also feature several antiques, motorcycles and hand crank fuel pumps from the old gas station.

“We are excited to work alongside BD Construction of Kearney again,” stated Chris Kingery of Kingery Construction. “I am confident they will create an excellent structure for Shoemaker's Travel Plaza.”
