PLANS for a hot food take-away in a terrace row in Gisburn Road, Barnoldswick, is being recommended for refusal.

A similar application 11 years ago was refused for road safety reasons and officers will tell the West Craven committee that the situation has not changed.

On street parking outside premises in Ribblesdale Buildings, Gisburn Road, is banned between the hours of 9am -6pm.

Officers will report that take-aways generally attract more motorists than other kinds of shop.

No off street parking was available and additional parking or manoeuvring of vehicles would be to the detriment of road safety and free flow of traffic.
