COUNCIL RULES ON LIDL'S BRIGG STORE APPLICATION

Members of North Lincolnshire Council's planning committee visited Brigg.

They were in town to take a look at the site near the Old River Ancholme where Lidl was applying to create additional car parking for its store.

Councillors on the committee convened at Scunthorpe Civic Centre for their March meeting and granted permission for the car parking, plus erection of a trolley bay, along with relocation and enhancement of a footway and associated landscaping, including additional lighting.

A report by council officers recommended granting permission.
