New McDonald’s jobs if council approves new development which will create job vacancies for the local job seekers.
Fast food chain McDonald’s has submitted a planning application to North Hertfordshire District Council to open a drive-through restaurant in Royston that would be expected to create 65 full-time and part-time jobs.
The plans have already been discussed on an initial basis at the council’s planning committee. While some council members were initially surprised by the application, they have since given a positive response to the plans, with one councillor stating that the new jobs would be very welcome and that he expected that the new restaurant would be a good opportunity for young job seekers in the area. The council has also expressed approval of the chosen location, which is close to the A505 road and not in the town centre, and the size of the proposed restaurant.
Although there are no specifics around the restaurant’s opening hours, it is expected that the company would wish to keep the unit open 24 hours a day so that it can offer a service to night shift workers and motorists on long journeys.
Following further discussion, the council should make a final decision on the application from the fast food chain next month.
