Falkirk service station gets permission for alcohol deliveries

Another petrol station in the Falkirk Council area has been given permission to deliver alcohol along with groceries.

Carronside Service Station, Bainsford, has finally being given go-ahead to make the home deliveries by Falkirk Council's licensing board.

The Londis shop that is attached to the garage was granted permission to start selling booze last September, but the decision on home deliveries was delayed as the board wanted more clarity about the use of Uber Eats to make the deliveries.

That information was provided when the owners, Motor Fuel Group, made successful applications for Crossroads Service Station, Dean Road, Bo'ness, and Polmont Service Station, Main Street.

When the board met on Wednesday, Andrew Hunter, representing Motor Fuel Group, told members that the application was identical to the others which had been operating with no problems.

Police Scotland and Falkirk Council's licensing standards officers confirmed there had been no issues with the application and members of the board agreed to grant it.
