CONTROVERSIAL proposals to build a Tesco Express in High Wycombe have been approved tonight.
Wycombe District Council’s Planning Committee voted nine-six in favour of allowing the supermarket giant to transform the former Platt’s garage in London Road into an Express store.
But many members voted “with heavy hearts” after being told by officers that there were no valid planning reasons for refusal.
But councillors rejected a plan to change the use of land at The Nursery in Heath End Road, Flackwell Heath, to allow a travellers site – to roars of approval from the public gallery.
