COXBRIDGE UPDATE 5th DECEMBER

Good afternoon everyone, I talked to Sales at Coxbridge this week and they said that as the Housing Market had slowed down they were pausing building for a few months - probably as many as three - they cited problems with The Budget, obtaining mortgages etc. They were finishing off some houses at the present, ready for more occupants as required.


The first occupants are moving in shortly they said.

ROAD WORKS CRONDALL LANE Updated 9th January

 Date for completion now moved to the end of January - before it got deleted this week! I have queried this omission with SCC


Back in October, an enquiry was made to SCC about the two way signalling in Crondall Lane by The Long House, since the traffic lights have been there for some time now - this is their response

-------------------------------------------------


Your Reference Number: 3364179
Highways Reference Number: 263905

Dear David King,

Thank you for your enquiry which has been logged as follows:

Issue: Scheme enquiry ( Carriageway and Footway )
Location: Crondall Lane Farnham

Thank you for enquiry regarding the road closure, please be assured Surrey Highways do understand your frustrations,
Unfortunately, a void has been identified in the carriageway, requiring the traffic management for safety reasons.

This is a very dangerous void in the carriageway and therefore, the need to have it inspected and repaired. I do sympathise that this is causing chaos; however, the road will have Traffic Control (two-way signals) and work is expected to be completed around 31 October, 2025.


I hope the information that I have provided is helpful and to reassure you that your concerns have been taken seriously.


Sign up to 'Your Highways Update' to stay up to date with highways information for your local area.

Kind regards,

Highways Customer Services Team

COMMUNITY SPEED WATCH UPDATED 9th JANUARY 2026

We currently have a Community Speed Watch Team that has been in the lower part (20MPH) of Crondall Lane (CSW#1) - their coordinator has recently given me their report as follows:

Our Community Speedwatch is nearly a year old as it started on 25th January 2025. 27 sessions have been carried out, an average of 2 per month. 440 letters have been sent out and 70 drivers were speeding excessively, over 1.5 times the speed limit. The maximum speed recorded was 40 mph and the average speed was 28 mph. There were 8 repeat offenders, 17 vehicles without MOT and 13 vehicles without tax. The police officer has said that our Speedwatch group is out far more than other groups. New equipment was given to our group by the CSW police officer, in December 2025. I am trying to sort out this month's sessions now and each session has reduced in time from 1 hour to 30 mins due to the cold and wet weather.

CSW#2, for the 30MPH part of Crondall Lane, is waiting to get their WhatsApp group setup and online training done - when this is done then onsite training will be done by the CSW#1 coordinator.

KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!
