Update on Knaphill Roadworks

                                                                                    

     
 Anchor Hill                            Lwr Guildford Rd               Broadway, Zebra Crossing        Redding Way, Toucan 


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 a
nd
speed limit to be reduced from 40 to 30 mph,
Lower Guildford Road and
Hermitage Road.
