DETROIT -- General Motors Co. is laying off 1,100 workers at an
assembly plant in Michigan.
GM said it is ending the third shift at its Lansing Delta
Township plant because one of its products -- the GMC Acadia SUV --
is moving to Spring Hill, Tennessee.
The Lansing plant will still have two shifts building the Buick
Enclave and Chevrolet Traverse SUVs.
Lansing's last day as a three-shift plant will be May 12.
GM said last spring that it would make the new Acadia in
Tennessee. It has added a third shift and around 800 jobs to its
plant in Spring Hill.
