PLANS to create a gym and fitness centre from a former MOT centre and vehicle servicing bay were backed by town councillors.
Goxercise Ltd has applied to Bolton Council to convert the unit in Chorley New Road, Horwich — a second version that increases the number of proposed on-site parking spaces from 10 to 17.
Horwich Town Council’s planning committee recommended approval of the scheme although some councillors including Councillor Kath Schofield had concerns about traffic access, saying: “Car parking isn’t the problem — getting in and out might be.”
