Construction of the new $43 million mega Bunnings Warehouse is continuing.
Several pre-fab walls are already in place.
Bunnings' state operations manager NSW North, Cheryl Williams says the new warehouse is also on track to officially open sometime in early 2019.
About 250 jobs have been created during the construction phase.
It is understood Bunnings will be searching to fill some 80 additional jobs in the lead-up to the opening of the new mega centre.
The mega store will cover about 18,000 square metres and is sited near the corner of John Oxley Drive and the Oxley Highway.
