Plans for a new indoor adventure centre near Chesterfield, UK, have been approved by the town council despite objections.
Conditional approval was green-lit for the construction of Adrenaline World on the site of the Peak Resort, the Derbyshire Times reports.
A petition, which was considered by the planning committee, expressed a number of concerns about the proposals, including noise and light pollution, traffic issues and disruption to local wildlife. Despite this, the plans were passed with the planning committee citing the scheme as a priority.
Adrenaline World is the brainchild of leisure entrepreneur and former professional English tennis player, David Lloyd and will feature many activities, including zip-lines, a ninja course, caving, ropes courses, adventure golf and e-karts.
“I am thrilled with the opportunity of working with Birchall Properties, the owner of the 300-acre Peak site, and the authorities in Chesterfield to develop Adrenaline World and provide a brilliant amenity in a fabulous location,” said Lloyd in a statement to media. “I am looking to this Adrenaline World being the first of many we’ll build across the country in the next few years.”
