A supermarket chain has filed a licencing application to sell alcohol 24 hours a day at one of its stores in Ipswich.

It was revealed in February that Asda would be taking on the retail unit at Sproughton Road petrol station, converting it into one of its Asda Express stores.

The supermarket is now seeking permission to sell alcohol at the store. 

A licencing application submitted to Babergh District Council said it wants to sell alcohol 24 hours a day. 

The store was unveiled on February 29.
