Ockham Road North will be closed in one direction between Guilleshill Lane and the Ockham roundabout 24 hours a day during this time.

A3 Southbound Off Slip Lane Reconfiguration 

The lane configuration on the A3 Southbound where drivers exit for Junction 10 M25 was changed from two lanes to one to allow for the carriageway widening of the slip road. This work is expected to last for 8 weeks. Once complete, the slip road will revert back to two lanes.  The left lane will be dedicated to access the M25 anticlockwise towards Gatwick and the right lane will be dedicated to access the Junction 10 M25 Gyratory for all other destinations.

On the approach to this exit, drivers to be prepared to change lanes or allow other vehicles to merge to maintain traffic flows.

Roadworks on the A245 Continue 

To ease the congestion around works on the A245, the A3 northbound off slip at Painshill has been closed. This closure will remain in place until the end of November 2024 whilst we continue with our works in this area.

The closure of the A3 northbound off slip at Painshill helps to improve the eastbound traffic flow along the A245.  To also ease the traffic flow in the area changes have been made to the sequencing of the traffic signals on all sides of the Painshill roundabout to favour the flow eastbound on the A245. Further information on this including answers to your many questions can be found here.

M25 closures - update

National Highways have announced there will be no more full weekend closures of the M25/A3 this calendar year. The two remaining closures will be next spring. They will give a minimum of four weeks’ notice for these closures so you can plan ahead, and they will avoid busy holiday periods.

Speed Limit Reduced on The Drift

Hard on the heels of finally achieving a 20mph limit in Chalk Lane, your Parish Council’s long running quest to bring about a reduction in The Drift has also been successful. The previous 60 mph limit has now been lowered to 30mph.

A246 Road Death

For some years East Horsley Parish Council’s Road Safety Task Group has been pressing Surrey Highways (SH) to take steps to curb excessive speeding and dangerous overtaking on the downhill stretch of road from Outdowns to Green Dene. Drawing on local knowledge and data collected by the village Speedwatch team, it was pointed out that, if nothing was done, a serious accident was likely at some stage.

The Task Group’s urgings went unheeded and tragically the collision that was dreaded duly occurred on Sunday morning when a motor cyclist lost his life.

EHPC fervently hopes that measures will now be taken by SH to reduce the risk of such devastating circumstances happening again.
