Plans have been lodged with Blackpool Council to site a hot food takeaway trailer on a hotel forecourt on Blackpool Promenade. The scheme (reference 24/0354) would see the trailer located alongside the Harper Beach Hotel at the junction with Trafalgar Road.

The hotel is not believed to be currently trading. If it gets the go-ahead, the trailer will be located alongside the hotel on Trafalgar Road.

However, there has been one objection to the application from a neighbour who points out there is already a hot food outlet at the opposite end of the block. They add they also have concerns about “the late night noise, food waste and litter”.

The application will now go before town hall planners at a future date for consideration.

'Titanic Moment': Carnival Cruise Ship Smashes Into Large Piece of Floating Ice
A Carnival Cruise Line ship collided with a large piece of floating ice while traveling in the Tracy Arm Fjord in Alaska on September 5.Cassandra Goskie was a passenger on the ship, named the Carnival Spirit, and recorded the moment it struck the piece of ice. She told Storyful she was standing on her balcony when she noticed they were getting pretty close.“If we die, it was damn well worth it. It’s a Titanic moment,” Goskie said as they approached the ice.In another clip, a smaller boat can be seen examining the ship as the cruise director confirms there was no damage.In a statement to news outlets, Carnival said the ship struck “an errant piece of drifting ice last Thursday while sailing in Tracy Arm Fjord, Alaska” and added that “the vessel continued on its cruise and there has been no impact to operations.”While Goskie made a comparison to the Titanic which sank after striking an iceberg in 1912, the ice the cruise ship struck would not be classified as an iceberg. According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, an iceberg is a piece of ice with a height greater than 16 feet above sea level, with a thickness of at least 98 feet, and must cover an area of at least 5,382 square feet.
