PLANNING approval has been given for two separate extensions at the bus station at Todmorden to be used exclusively for staff.

The council's development committee was told by Coun Clarence Brown that the staff deserved the extra space, and Coun Frank McManus suggested that room could be provided by creating the extra space for an inquiry desk.

He said that providing an inquiry window would provide little or no trouble for staff, and would create a useful service for the public.
