Blackpool's Velvet Coaster pub set for investment
JD Wetherspoon has applied for planning permission to install a retractable roof over the existing outdoor drinking area at the top of the Velvet Coaster on South Promenade.
The scheme also includes the addition of a glazed screen.
The pub opened in May 2015 after Wetherspoon's carried out a £2.2m conversion of the former Lucky Star Amusement Arcade.

Hide AdA Wetherspoon's spokesperson said: "Our plans include the installation of a retractable roof over the existing roof terrace and erection of a glazed screen.
"The proposal is to install retractable canopies to the roof garden to one side coming off the area which leads to the roof garden bar. "
The application will go before council planners at a future date.
