Murphy Tractor & Equipment Company Inc. has broken ground on a new branch facility in Lincoln, Neb.

The 23,575 sq. ft. (2,190 sq m) structure will be situated on 6.4 acres (2.6 ha) and is scheduled to be completed in early September. The new location offers more interior space, multiple service bays, and a larger equipment yard for heavy equipment — about twice the size of the current grounds. Located southeast of the Highway 77 and Interstate 80 intersection, the new address will be 6100 Arbor Road.

“We are pleased to offer our customers the benefit of having state of the art resources,” said Branch Manager John Spellman.

Murphy Tractor & Equipment Company Inc., a John Deere’s North American construction equipment dealers, has been in business for 25 years and is headquartered in Wichita, Kan.

The organization has 16 locations throughout the mid-western states of Iowa, Kansas, Missouri and Nebraska.
