Hotel chain Travelodge is writing to 220 local authorities across Britain proposing a joint development partnership aimed at stimulating regeneration and economic growth.
Travelodge said it has identified that it can expand its UK hotel network with a further 300 locations for new hotels.
The company said the expansion programme could represent an investment of around £3 billion for third-party investors and create more than 9,000 jobs across the UK.
