A POPULAR fast food restaurant will be getting bigger and better after plans to revamp the eatery are given the green light.

The proposals to expand the KFC restaurant in Galley’s Corner have been given the go ahead by Braintree Council and will see extra seating installed both inside and outside the restaurant.

Customers will also benefit from a bigger car park, which is set to be reworked in order to increase the number of spaces available.

It remains unclear how many new spaces will be created however.

The expansion of KFC will also see the kitchen area moved to make way for a new drive-thru window, meaning the restaurant would be able to serve two customers at the same time.

Applicants KEFCO say the introduction of another drive-thru window will “provide a better drive thru experience and improve speed of service.”
