A drive-thru McDonald’s and petrol station could be opening near a busy motorway junction soon - with the creation of 145 jobs.
Leeds-based Impero (Development Management) Ltd has applied to build the refuelling facility with charging bays and restaurant at The Woodyard on Weaver View in Runcorn. The site sits next to Clifton roundabout at junction 12 of the M56 and Weston Point Expressway in Runcorn.
An application submitted to Halton Borough Council said the project would feature four two-sided pump islands, electric vehicle charging points, parking, and a drive-thru fast food restaurant - revealed to be a McDonald’s. Impero’s design and access statement (DAS) said the 7,560 sq ft, single storey scheme would create 145 jobs, with 25 of those in the petrol station and 120 in the drive-thru.
