Agents Workman, in the application, state: ‘The works involve the creation of a secondary entry/exit point to the existing car park of the retail park to resolve ongoing traffic congestion.
‘The newly created entry/exit is to be located off the existing service road which sits within the site boundary and will entail the removal of the existing soft landscaping and
construction of 50m2 of new road surfacing.
‘The proposed development does not involve any change of use to what is an existing road and car park nor will it increase traffic.’
It would result in the loss of four parking spaces.
