The chain will replace the locations of two stores, Halfords and Bensons for Beds, this year, according to local councillors.

The new plan has been approved by the Borough Council and is currently being discussed by the community. Councillors have also welcomed the plan, saying it will significantly benefit the community and help the Council fix parts of Lyons Way faster.

Lidl have said several handicap spaces will be built for those with a blue badge with an additional ten spots for parents. However, Russ Cochran, a Conservative Councillor of Northbrook Ward, expressed his views, saying he doesn't think enough spaces have been provided. In response, Lidl said that the amount was reasonable and will benefit their customers' needs.
