Improvements planned for Lidl’s Shanklin branch

Cut-price supermarket Lidl wants a bigger store in Shanklin. Plans to extend the store in Shanklin have been submitted by the national supermarket chain.

A new window entranceway is proposed for the store on Landguard Manor Road, extending the shops lobby.

Customer toilet and reconfigured parking
A customer toilet is among the improvements, according to the drawn site plans.

The car park is going to be reconfigured — with the parent and child spaces on the move and a dual charging point for electric vehicles installed.

The trolley bay will also be moved away from the store and across the way, next to the disabled parking.

New deposit-return scheme
The chain’s ‘return, reward, recycle’ scheme allows shoppers to earn money off their next shop for recycling their old tins, glass or plastic bottles via a deposit-return scheme, which could be introduced at Shanklin.

You can view the plans, 22/01150/FUL, on the Isle of Wight Council’s planning register.

The public consultation runs until 5th August 2022.
