Plans are being drawn up for a new supermarket in the Bedale area.

A consultation is underway on a proposal to build a discount supermarket and drive-thru coffee shop on land off Bedale Road, Aiskew.

Developers Morbaine have published a website with details of the development and are asking for feedback.

The company says: “We are currently developing proposals for a new discount food store and drive thru’ coffee shop at a site on Bedale Road.

“If approved, this will provide increased choice for people in the local area and reduce the distances currently being travelled by residents to undertake their main food shop.

“As such, the proposed development would promote more sustainable shopping patterns locally and help reduce unnecessary car journeys for those seeking greater choice and value for money.”

It is not specified which store would open, however the company says it has previously worked with firms including Aldi and Lidl.

It added: “On some of our projects, we will reach an agreement with an operator prior to submitting a planning application, but on others, such as this one, we will first secure planning approval and then reach agreement with an operator.”

The proposed site is adjacent to a new housing development known as Beaumont Gate.

The Taylor Wimpey site will include more than 190 new homes when finished.
