There are already lorry deliveries to Mill Road; why can’t Tesco do so?
There is a specific planning condition on the site that Tesco have acquired, which specifically prevents unloading from on Mill Road. There is already an existing safety and traffic flow problem, and the issue is that additional deliveries, in contravention of this existing regulation, would worsen the existing situation. Both councillors and the planning inspector also thought that Tesco’s delivery plans would be dangerous and contrary to planning guidance because of the nature and number of deliveries needed by Tesco.
