A 53-METRE observation tower overlooking Weymouth Bay has been unanimously approved by Weymouth and Portland planners at a meeting today.
The Echo exclusively revealed the details of the tower, nicknamed the 'Weymouth Eye', earlier this summer.
Sea Life Centre-owners Merlin Entertainment Ltd is behind the proposals.
See Thursday's Echo for the full story and reaction.
