A CAR dealer has been allowed to expand on to neighbouring land currently being used as a service station.

IGW, in Belmont Road, Astley Bridge, had been to an appeal over conditions he was unhappy about, one of which being that no more than four vehicles could be displayed for sale on the site at any one time.

That condition has now been overturned. The only requirment for the firm is that it cannot park accident-damaged vehicles, vehicles awaiting insurance inspection, scrap vehicles or recovery vehicles.
