Plans for a 24-hour superstore have been shelved.

Sainsbury’s applied to create two retail units on the site of a former Caffyn’s car showroom in Preston Road, Brighton.

But councillors rejected the scheme expressing concerns it would make nearby roads more dangerous.

Campaigners, who presented a petition of more than 500 signatures and 181 copies of a 66-page letter opposing the plans, stated they were delighted the application was refused.
