I got sent this on another forum and wondered if anyone here could add to the party...

Hello!

I need to talk to someone about the planning implications regarding highways and the building of a large supermarket in a town centre, with all the additional traffic that would be created.

If I could talk to your mate on the phone for a bit, it would be helpful. My number is ***** ******.

Cheers,

Presumably the issues will be the possible increase in traffic and the increase in the number of large goods vehicles delivering to the supermarket.

Personally I think that out of town supermarkets will generate more traffic and that a supermarket in the middle of town will benefit a greater number of people, the less well off for example.

Depends if it's a smaller tesco metro or a large asda as they cater for different markets.

Some people might shop daily and walk or bus while others may drive and do a weekly shop,.

No, it does not require a set of 24 hour traffic lights.
