В Нориче сносят старую автосалонную площадку для строительства круглосуточной заправки

Demolition of a former car dealership site has begun to make way for a new 24-hour petrol station. The old Carscene site on Drayton Road is being knocked down ahead of the petrol station being built. Plans submitted to Norwich City Council by Tankerford Limited were approved in November 2023 despite concerns being raised by neighbours. People living nearby criticised the petrol station’s round-the-clock operation, fearing it could create more noise and traffic in the area. To address these concerns, Tankerford Limited has produced a noise management plan for the site. It includes limiting jet wash use to daytime hours, restricting deliveries to daytime only, and installing signs reminding customers to keep noise down, especially at night. The company, which runs several service stations under the brand name 'Refuel Market', has committed to keeping neighbours informed throughout the project. "Regular updates will be provided to residents during construction by means of letter drop-offs” the firm has stated.
