It said Westdale Lane ‘is a busy link road through a mainly residential location interspersed with occasional commercial and retail units.’

The D & A statement also stated that the applicant has identified a strong demand for a modern high-quality car washing service with fully trained and uniformed staff. It would be supported with a tyre retailing facility and public electrical vehicle charging facility.

A single storey building incorporating reception, office and tyre changing areas is to be retained and reclad. This is also reflected in the planning application which states that the existing gross internal floorspace of 204sq.m is equivalent to the total gross new internal floorspace proposed.

The 3M high Glass screens will provide acoustic protection to the adjacent properties.

Public electric charging facilities will be positioned to the rear of the building away from the jet washing facility.
