Developers told to have boy racer security plan
The site was formerly a Total petrol station

A plan to deter boy racers must be created by the developers of a new industrial estate in Nottinghamshire, councillors have said.
Proposals to build a new estate featuring 19 industrial units in Colwick Loop Road, Colwick, were approved by Gedling Borough Council on Wednesday.
However, councillors voiced concerns over security on the site, which they said could be used by boy racers.
Before the site can open, developers Chancerygate will now have to submit a security plan to the council.
The developer bought the former Total fuel depot, near the Sainsbury鈥檚 Superstore in Colwick, in 2021.
Permission was first granted in January last year to transform the site into an industrial estate featuring a builders鈥 merchant, the Local Democracy Reporting Service said.
However, the builders鈥 merchant dropped out and the entire scheme has since been redesigned to include 19 industrial units due to increased market demand.
George Dickins, senior development director for Chancerygate, said: 鈥淭he scheme will deliver a number of benefits including the redevelopment聽of previously developed land within a sustainable protected employment area, and the provision of new employment opportunities to聽benefit the local economy.鈥
The new conditions state councillors must approve a "site management plan" from the developer, which sets out security measures, before the buildings can be occupied.
