The scheme will six units created on land off Yoxall Way in Streethay to serve the new Roman Heights estate.
The proposals include a 4,300sq ft convenience store alongside five smaller units.

A 48-space car park will also be constructed as part of the scheme to be built alongside Streethay Primary School.
Full details of the proposals can be seen on Lichfield District Council’s planning website.
Believe it when I see it open – lots of false dawns
Well when all the films are gone and you’ve built everything what you gonna do then Council
Will there be height restrictions to the car park near the school,to deter unlawfully parking.
No doubt another Coop or Tesco’s…come on LDC use some imagination, have some independent retailers
Chris: God knows there’s plenty to have ago at LDC about, I’m not sure what you expect them to do to decide which businesses decide to open in a privately-owned development on privately-owned land?
People don’t bother with local independent shops any more, the only likely contender will be yet another Tesco/Co-op/Londis variant.
The comments from grown adults hilarious. 🤦♂️ Read the planning applications,before making idiotic comments. 👍😂 So what if it’s a Tesco’s or Co-Op it’s a 700 plus housing estate it needs it.
This is just a short walk from Trent Valley station. I can see the 48 car parking spaces rapidly filling up from 6am during the working week. There will need to be some parking restrictions put in place.
