Members of the planning committee unanimously approved the council’s own plan to increase space at its commercial depot in Bennet Road, Whitley.
It involves raising the roof line of three garage units to allow taller vehicles to be serviced.
Cllr Karen Rowland (Labour, Abbey), supporting the project, said the increased space assists the council in the electrification of its vehicles and provides crucial space for these vehicles to be maintained.
The application can be seen on Reading Borough Council’s planning website, searching for reference 231143.
