New ‘green’ showroom helps to create jobs

JCT600 is the proud occupant of a “sustainable” building that houses its Audi showroom in Hull. The development has also provided a boost for the local economy by helping to create 15 jobs. The project began in November 2012 with the acquisition of a 3.4 acre site on Saxon Way, Priory Park, opposite JCT600’s existing Audi dealership. The buildings on the site, which were formerly part of the telecoms firm KCom, were demolished and Hull-based PDR Construction was hired to create JCT600’s new energy efficient Audi dealership.

The building has a sophisticated system that controls and monitors energy usage. It even has a weather station on the roof to control the window blinds.

Steven Kirby, head of business at JCT600’s Hull Audi dealership, said: “This has been a huge and complex project which has created a fantastic, spacious and high tech showroom for Audi customers.”
