A NEW car park is to be created at a Burnley industrial estate after plans for the work were approved.

Pipeline Induction Heat, on the Farrington Road Industrial Estate, applied to create a 14 space car park and new yard area.

Burnley Council planning officer Graeme Thorpe said: “The scheme proposed seeks to create spaces off this road which will not only create more parking, but will also allow the access road to be more accessible.

“The proposed yard area extension will extend into a field adjacent to the site. The site lies within the existing urban boundary and within land designated as a major industrial estate.”
