A planning application has been submitted to open a new padel centre and drive-thru restaurant in Hadleigh.

The proposal is to develop vacant land off Ipswich Road and Ellen Aldous Avenue next to Starbucks.

The padel centre would contain two indoor courts, showers, changing facilities, toilets and a reception shop and hire area.

The drive-thru restaurant would be built with parking, cycle storage and electric vehicle charging bays.

Plans show up to 41 car spaces, including three accessible bays, about four charging spaces and two motorcycle spaces. A shared access from Ellen Aldous Avenue would serve both uses. The existing side road and turning area would remain for nearby homes.

The documents say the centre and restaurant would create full and part-time jobs when operational. They also say the centre would provide sports facilities and a place for people to meet.

The design includes a green roof, landscaping and provision for solar panels. Indoor courts are proposed to address noise and lighting concerns raised during pre-application discussions.
