It looks like construction crews are clearing ground at the corner of Black Horse Pike and Lakeland Road, across from the Heritage convenience store, and fencing has gone up to block off the perimeter of the property, according to 42 Freeway. This Blackwood Lidl will reportedly be about 31,000 square feet.

It's been a long time coming since the Gloucester Twp. Planning Board approved the project a little over a year ago.
