We occasionally post Wallington-related items where there is bound to be wider interest.  Residents have raised concerns after plans were submitted for a McDonald’s “drive-through” in Wallington Town Centre.

The plans include a two-storey restaurant, a drive-through, external seating and 44 car parking spaces in Stafford Road – on a site which used to hold a car-wash and backs on to a residential area. The consultation officially closed on Friday 7th June 2013 but you can still write in and object (if you wish!) and some residents have written to Sutton’s development and control committee objecting to the proposals with multiple concerns.

A council spokesman said: “The application is currently being examined and any representations received will be carefully considered by officers. No date has yet been set for the formal determination of the application by the council’s Development Control Committee.”

To let the council know your views on building a McDonald’s in Stafford Road visit the online planning register, email developmentcontrol@sutton.gov.uk, or write to Development Services, Environment and Leisure, 24 Denmark Road, Carshalton, SM5 2JG.
