TESCO has announced that it is hoping to open its petrol filling station on the site of the new store it is developing in November.

The Tesco store is due to open towards the end of January 2010.

Traffic lights will be in place on the A377 near Wellparks for another six weeks while the work continues.

A Tesco spokesperson will be talking to Crediton Town Council on June 23 to update councillors on the work.
