Construction is underway in Murrieta on what will become one of the largest CarMax facilities in the nation.

The 46-acre site, approved by the Murrieta City Council last July, is located in a large plot of vacant land south of Murrieta Hot Springs Road on the west side of Interstate 15. It is expected to bring 250 jobs to the city.

The used-car retailer will offer car sales, service and auctions.
