McDonald's is 'delighted' at tonight's (Tues) Rutland County Council planning and licensing committee's decision to approve the planning application to build a new restaurant and drive-thru in Oakham.

A spokesman for the company said: "We are delighted that the Rutland Planning Committee has approved our application for a new restaurant in Oakham.

"Over the last year, we carried out an extensive consultation process, speaking to local residents about our plans and have been heartened by the levels of support we have received.

"The new McDonald's will create at least 65 new jobs for local people, and we're excited about working alongside the local community."

The company says the out of town location - on land at Hawkesmead Business Estate, off Lands End Way - was 'chosen specifically to respect the unique character' of the town centre.
