Hermitage planners get peek at Fedex distribution center plans

The City of Hermitage is giving us a preview of what that proposed 250,000 square foot FedEx distribution facility will look like when it’s built along Route 18.
Artist renderings of the plant were released Monday as city planners approved plans for the project on the site of the Tam O’Shanter golf driving range.
Plans submitted to the commission even include color schemes that will be used on the building when it is completed next year.
The developer of the facility is also installing a traffic light at the facility’s entrance on Hermitage Road, in accordance with PennDOT regulations according to City Manager Gary Hinkson.
FedEx announced last month that it chose Hermitage due to its proximity to the highways, customers' distribution centers and the local workforce for employee recruitment.
