A BRADFORD branch of Mcdonalds could soon be opening much earlier on weekends if a new licence is approved.

The burger giant’s Rooley Lane branch currently has a licence that allows it to open from 5am to midnight through the week and from 7am to midnight on weekends.

But the company has submitted a request to Bradford Council to vary that licence, allowing it to open at 5am seven days a week.

People have until December 27 to have their say on the proposals.

‘Landmark’ plan for former site of Gallopers Pub on Wakefield Road

Earlier this year Bradford Council approved a planning application to vary the opening hours to allow for the earlier weekend opening, but the plans also have to go through the licensing process.

The same branch has also recently been granted planning permission to install a series of digital screens across the site.

The screens will feature advertisements and menus for the restaurant.
