Yorkshire-based Dransfield Properties has submitted plans to Central Bedfordshire council to transform a site in Houghton Regis, Bedfordshire, with a new £12m food store development.
The plans for the new 51,100 sq ft Morrisons store will also deliver a 278-space car park as well as pedestrian links and landscaping.
Mark Dransfield, managing director of Dransfield Properties, said: “We have listened through the consultation process to the local authority and the wider community as well as those people living closest to the site.
“There is clearly a great deal of support for the development in Houghton Regis.
“We have taken a comprehensive look at all the traffic issues and our design team has also looked closely at the existing buildings in the town.
“We are now bringing forward a scheme which will complement and enhance the High Street as well as answering the need for a good-quality food store.”
