The total building footprint for the new Lidl, which includes warehouse and ancillary spaces, will be 2,269 square metres.
The new store will enhance its customer facilities by adding 46 extra parking spaces, making a total of 125. This includes three additional disabled parking spaces and 12 new motorcycle spaces. Additionally, there will be electric vehicle charging points to accommodate the growing demand for green energy solutions.
The store is expected to create up to ten new jobs, with the majority being part-time roles. This expansion will provide a boost to the local employment market.
Also as part of the project, a dedicated cycle path will be built to the north of the store, linking with the Strawberry Line project, encouraging more sustainable travel options in the area.
You can fins the new Lidl in Wells at Strawberry Way, South, Wells, BA5 2AZ.
