Construction on the Welland Canadian Tire store expansion is well underway.

The revamped store, on Primeway Drive, will grow to about 10,220 square metres (110,000 square feet) from 6,040 square metres (65,000 square feet) in retail space.

A large warehouse and a 465-square-metre (5,000-square-foot) area designed to accommodate curbside pickup is part of the plans.

The expansion will make it the chain’s third-largest store in the country.
