North Lincolnshire Council's planning committee, meeting at Scunthorpe Civic Centre, granted permission for the store on Bridge Street, off the A18 and close to the bridge over the New River Ancholme.
The application was "for demolition of existing buildings and erection of a retail unit (Use Class A1) with car parking, landscaping and associated works."
Planning officers prepared a report for elected councillors on the committee, in which they recommended the granting of permission to Aldi Stores & Ancholme Estates.
A condition of planning permission is that opening hours shall be restricted as follows:
Monday to Saturday, 8am to 10pm.
Sundays, 10am to 6pm.
The reason is "to protect the living conditions presently enjoyed by the occupants of residential properties in the area" in accordance with the council's policy.
N.F. ADDS: Aldi will be joining other major retailers Lidl, Tesco and B&M in competing for the lucrative 'family shop' grocery market in Brigg.

While I am pretty confident, from the artist's impression, that the site is opposite Island Car Road, and includes the Brigg Motor Springs site, I've been looking for the details, and none of the reports that come up bother to clearly give the location. It's just somewhere in Brigg near the Leisure Centre. Even after figuring that out, I couldn't be sure whether or not the Farmstar site is included, though there is no sign of any change on their website. While the connections at Cary Lane can be awkward, it looks pretty good for the bus stops
