Work is under way to give Brighton's Waitrose store a new look.

The upgrade, expected to be finished in September, includes the introduction of the Quick Check self-scanning service, which allows customers to save time shopping.

The store, in Western Road, will have a revised layout, with more groceries and a new fish counter.

Manager Steve Shore said: "We have been in Brighton since 1966 and it is time to give our shop a fresh new look.

"We are sorry for any inconvenience caused during the work but are confident we will be able to offer our customers a more enjoyable shopping experience when the work is completed."
