SUTTON MA-Home Depot Inc. withdrew its plans to build a trucking facility in Shrewsbury and will instead focus on building the facility here instead. The company has filed plans with the town for the project.

A group of Shrewsbury residents were opposed to the Atlanta, GA-based company building the facility in their town, but reportedly Home Depot insists that the change of venue has nothing to do with the local opposition.

The Sutton site is in the South Sutton Commerce Park near Route 146.
