Update on Knaphill Roadworks
Anchor Hill These major roadworks are designed to bring improved safety. There will be pedestrian phasing to the traffic lights, improved crossing points and lowered kerbs, but the disruption has led to many short term problems. There are long traffic delays at peak times, loss of business for traders, difficulties with access and a mess of signs and obstructions. Residents, shopkeepers, drivers and pedestrians all anxiously waiting for the work to be finished.
Broadway - New Zebra Crossing Residents are pleased to see that power is now connected and the crossing is now in use. Some people are concerned that it is not a very visible crossing point, and that the hedges and overhanging trees need to be thoroughly cut back to make it a more visible and accessible crossing point on the route to Knaphill schools.
KRA is reporting concerns to WBC and SCC to get the sight lines and footpaths improved.
Redding Way / Tudor Way - Toucan Crossing
Toucan for safer Cycle and Pedestrian crossing; but still delays and work not yet completed. Better cycle routes through Knaphill should be the eventual result.
Also planned, other work for 2008 / 09 Financial Year: Lower Guildford Road A controlled crossing point is to be constructed close to Northwood Avenue and speed limit to be reduced from 40 to 30 mph, Lower Guildford Road and Hermitage Road.
