Tesco’s proposed double deck car park will have the capacity for 660 car trips to be made per hour. In order to solve the problem of over-capacity at the Middle Street/Station Road junction, Tesco has recently submitted a revised traffic proposal . If approved, the land currently occupied by the fire station would be used to provide extra lanes on Middle Street and Station Road. Compulsory purchase powers have recently been approved to allow this to happen under the NET scheme.
The car park layout has also been changed to reduce the prospect of queuing on Station Road.

This application is likely to go before the Development Control Committee in June.
