A new drive-thru restaurant for Burscough
We are excited to be bringing forward proposals for a new McDonald’s drive-thru restaurant at Ringtail Retail Park in Burscough. We are working with the Retail park owners – Titan Ormskirk POS Limited – to prepare a planning application for submission to West Lancashire Borough Council. If approved, our plans will bring a vacant development site into use and deliver new jobs and investment.
This website hosts our pre-application public consultation. We would encourage you to give your feedback on our proposals to help shape our planning application.
