Plans have been drawn up for a new ambulance station in Lichfield.

Land off Eastern Avenue which was formerly the home of Hepworth Building Products has been earmarked for the new development.

West Midlands Ambulance Service is hoping to develop the community station as part of a wider modernisation project across the region.

“Overall these proposals represent a high quality development, which reflects the continued use of the site and is appropriate for the location,” a statement supporting the proposal said.

Residents can view the plans and have their say on Lichfield District Council’s planning website.
