TRANSPORT GROUP ASKS WHERE WARDENS HAVE GONE

The Working Group suggested that the 30 minutes of free parking in the two village car parks would benefit from wider publicity, as it is not immediately clear on the car park signs, nor among the wider community, that there is a free period. Shops and businesses, for example, could advertise the free half hour at their checkouts or in shop windows.

It was also noted that there is only limited parking enforcement in the village, with few patrols and little presence. The Working Group is seeking an opportunity to engage with Elmbridge Borough Council to understand the basis for parking enforcement patrols in Claygate and to provide feedback to Elmbridge on the impact of limited patrols.

Peter Robinson, who is investigating Surrey County Council's roadworks programme, gave the Working Group a comprehensive update on his work, looking at how Surrey publicises its roadworks plans on its website, and how they link to the Project Horizon highway maintenance investment programme.
