Clean Energy Fuels said Monday it has signed a 10-year contract with third-party logistics provider Saddle Creek Transportation to build, operate and maintain a new compressed natural gas truck fueling station at Saddle Creek’s Lakeland, Fla. headquarters.

The fueling facility will support Saddle Creek’s expanding fleet of CNG trucks, Clean Energy said.

Last week, Saddle Creek announced its plans to deploy 40 new Freightliner CNG trucksÌýby the end of the year to serve its Florida customers. The logistics provider said it plans to purchase additional CNG trucks in the future.

Development of the new Saddle Creek CNG station is already underway, with the opening projected for December 2011, Clean Energy said.
