Plans have been submitted for a new Travelodge hotel on the Quadrant in Boston as well as a pub and another drive-thru restaurant.

The plans, submitted to Boston Borough Council, outline the use of two of the major retail plots to the north-east of the new Pilgrim Way distributor road.

A report, by Dovetail Architects, on behalf of applicant Burney Estate, says the location is an ‘ideal’ site for the proposed builds.

It describes the hotel as a two-storey build with 52 rooms.

The drive-thru restaurant will have a floor space of 1,675 sum and would include provision for an internal seating area, toilets, kitchen and external seating.

The pub is slightly smaller at 442.9sqm but also includes allocated space for amenities and seating areas – including a patio.

No companies have been named to run the pub or drive-thru.

Each new built will have more than 50 parking spaces outside and will be accessed from within the Quadrant site.

Three major fast food outlets, along with a bathroom show-room were recently approvedfor the site by Boston Borough Council.
