Bradford Council has approved a plan to expand a gaming centre, adding to the existing row of gambling businesses on Broadway.Summary
Bradford Council has approved an application by Luxury Leisure to expand a gaming centre into a former tanning salon unit on Broadway. The proposal aims to retain an established leisure use within the existing premises without external alterations. Planning officers supported the move, noting the site's sustainable location within the city centre. This decision comes shortly after the new council leader, Councillor Stephen Place, criticised the increasing number of gambling venues, describing the retail offer outside of Broadway as having been 'decimated' and replaced by vape shops, minimarkets, and gambling businesses.
