BRIGG & WOLDS: PLANS FOR NEW DRIVE THRU RESTAURANTS & FILLING STATION OUTLINED


Outline planning permission for "up to two" new drive thru' restaurant premises and a filling station within the Brigg & Wolds Ward is being sought from North Lincolnshire Council. The expected number of full-time jobs resulting is 58 if the scheme comes to fruition.
The suggested site (within Elsham parish) is land to the south of the M180 at Barnetby Top Interchange (Junction 5) and to the north and west of the A18.
An application is now under consideration to construct a lorry park with up to 200 parking bays; erection of an amenity building; provision of a fuel filling station, including the erection of a canopy and sales building comprising ancillary retail floor space; provision of electric vehicle forecourt and charging points; erection of up to two drive-thru restaurant units, including associated car parking, and access/exit from the A18.
If this outline application is granted by North Lincolnshire Council, another detailed one is expected to follow in due course, setting out the scale, appearance, layout and landscaping "for subsequent consideration" by the local authority.
The outline application has been submitted by Lincoln-based Lindum Group Limited and the Brocklesby Estate.
The application site - near Gallows Wood garage - is currently used "for agricultural purposes."
North Lincolnshire Council has established a public consultation period for the application which will end on February 17. 2022.
The planning authority's decision will follow at some future date.
