New service station and drive-thru planned in 'ideally positioned' Nottinghamshire spot

A new service station has been planned at an 'ideally positioned' Nottinghamshire spot. The new service station would be built on 6.2 acres of farmland located at the A46/A606 Melton Road roundabout, Hickling, if plans are approved by Rushcliffe Borough Council.

The station would be run by Welcome Break Services Ltd and offer a new eight pump refuelling forecourt, rest and relaxation facilities within the main building featuring a drive-thru lane, hot food, toilet and shower facilities, and a sales area. There would be a separate drive-thru coffee building, with the whole site creating 65 new jobs.

Parking will be provided for cars, vans, light goods vehicles (LGV), motorbikes, cyclists and coaches incorporating dedicated EV charging point spaces. A HGV zone is also planned offering refuelling facilities, 24 hour parking, and space for an abnormal load vehicle.
