The discount shopping giant said the new store would create up to 50 new jobs
Proposals for the supermarket at the Paragon business park in Horwich are set to go before Bolton council’s planning committee on Thursday, July 18.
Vehicles will exit from a different junction onto De Havilland Way, controlled by traffic lights. A 145 space car is proposed with nine parent and child and nine accessible spaces. Four spaces will have electric vehicle charging points with infrastructure built for a further 20. The application has received two petitions of support containing 95 names.
Horwich Town Council have raised an objection ‘due to concerns about traffic congestion on Chorley New Road and ‘lack of consultation as it appears only a few households have been consulted’. A report by them, to be put before councillors, said: “Loss of allocated employment land is negligible compared to the overall supply. “The sequential test is passed as there are no better alternative sites within, on the edge or out of Horwich town centre.
