PLANS have been approved for a controversial truck stop “in the wrong place” just outside a South Gloucestershire village.

- ALEX SEABROOK Local Democracy Reporter

Villagers from Severn Beach opposed the planning application for a field on the corner of Severn Road and Govier Way with spaces for 39 lorries.

South Gloucestershire Council’s development management committee voted to permit the plans, but first heard that an alternative location would be far more suitable.

The plans include a building for drivers to sit and have something to eat, a shower and use the toilet. The entrance would be off Govier Way, but crossing a popular bridleway and cycling route. At the moment, lorries can often be seen parked along the side of the road in the area.
