AMERICAN fast food restaurant Taco Bell has been given the green light to open in Chelmsford.
The Tex-Mex chain has been given permission by the city council this week to set up shop at 213 Moulsham Street and transform it from a retail unit, to a restaurant and takeaway.
The unit used to be occupied by the Futon Company before it moved to its new home opposite the Co-operative store and The Farm Shop, also in Moulsham Street, in February last year.
The fast food outlet, which sells a blend of Mexican and Texan inspired foods such as tacos, burritos and nachos, has more than 6,500 stores worldwide.
