Situation
JJ White was hired to construct three new locations for Wawa, the famous Mid-Atlantic convenience store operator. As Wawa looked to expand their operations, JJ White provided a safe, reliable, local option to complete the general construction of the new stores.
Challenges
The urban locations of these stores provided challenges because of other nearby construction projects. The other ongoing developments along these commercial corridors created a dense population pocket that made moving large equipment and materials difficult.
Solutions
JJ White provided additional coordination between the other area developers and businesses to alleviate congestion issues and inconveniences to others. The project was completed quickly and without major hassles due to JJ White’s coordination efforts.
Results
The three Wawa locations are open for business 24 hours a day. The projects were completed on time and on budget with no OSHA recordables.
