Local planners have expressed regret over the anticipated problems associated with the opening of a new Domino’s takeaway on the High Street. Concerns include increased parking congestion, potential rises in obesity rates, and litter accumulation in the area. While acknowledging these issues, planners admit that their ability to mitigate the impact is restricted.
The new takeaway is expected to attract more visitors, leading to higher demand for parking spaces, which are already limited during peak hours. Additionally, public health advocates worry that easy access to fast food outlets could contribute to worsening obesity levels in the community. Litter management is another concern, with the potential for increased waste around the premises if not properly addressed.
Despite these worries, planners emphasize that the decision to approve the Domino’s outlet was made after careful consideration and within existing regulatory frameworks. They promise to monitor the situation and collaborate with local authorities to manage any emerging problems as effectively as possible.
