A PETROL station could be turned into a car park and offices.

Plans to transform the Beehive Garage, in Chorley New Road, Horwich, have been submitted to Bolton Council.

Proposals include extending the existing garage workshop and first floor accommodation would also be provided by increasing the height of the building by 1.8 metres.

The forecourt could also be changed into a car park for 21 spaces.

No objections have been received and the application conforms to council policy, but Horwich councillors deferred making a decision and requested more information about what the buildings will be used for.
