Plans for a McDonald's drive through at a Kirkby industrial estate have been submitted to Knowsley Council.
An application has been lodged with the local authority for permission for the fast food giant to extend a unitthat has already been built at the site to enable them to occupy it as a 24-hour drive through.
A further application for signs to be placed nearby the unit in Knowsley Industrial Park off Coopers Lane in Kirkby was submitted last week.
The site was previously given planning permission for a garage, drive through café and drive through restaurant, with work having completed on all units, two of which are operated by Shell and Starbucks.

According to a letter sent on behalf of McDonald's to Knowsley Council, the company "is interested in occupying and trading from the remaining building, which has been constructed but has not been fitted out or occupied."
It added that amendments would be needed to "meet McDonald’s operational requirements."
A 33 sq-m extension is being proposed to accommodate a pay booth, with other additions to the unit including a canopy, extra doors, bin storage and two customer pay screens at the site, as well as the removal of height restrictions at the entrance.
Both applications are currently open for comments and listed on the council's planning portal as awaiting a decision, which is expected to be made by the end of September.
