A COFFEE giant will be opening a new drive-thru location at Taunton's motorway services. 

The plans for a new Costa Drive-thru were approved by Taunton Deane Borough Council. 

The new drive-thru kiosk will be based at the Roadchef southbound services on the M5. 

The council approved the plans based on construction starting within three years of the date the permission was grant and that no surface water from the development should flow onto the trunk road or be discharged into the trunk road drainage system.
