CONTROVERSIAL plans for a new Lidl supermarket, 43 retirement apartments, four football pitches and a 91-space commuter car park for Bromley Cross train station have been backed by councillors.
Bolton Council’s planning committee heard the application for the proposed development at the derelict former Holland Garden Centre off Darwen Road, Bromley Cross and green belt land to the rear. The 27-acre site chosen for the new discount supermarket, with a car park for 125 vehicles, is partially located within the green belt and part of it is considered to be a site of biological importance . The plans also include a retirement living development of 43 apartments for over 55-year-olds, a mix of one and two-bedroom flats, together with a 37-space car park.
