The Evidence Room in Bury St Edmunds has planning permission approved to expand business upstairs

An escape room business in Bury St Edmunds has had planning permission to expand upstairs approved.

The Evidence Room in Risbygate Street applied for planning permission at the beginning of this year to be able to turn the residential living area on the first and second floor of the building into more escape rooms.

The expansion will mean the company can add two more escape rooms to the three it already runs.

It is hoped the business will be able to have 150 people visit each week, double the number of people that can visit currently, and will be able to employ more staff.
