The stages involved in the review are shown above, and we are currently at the implementation stage.

Introduction

Starting in May 2024 we visited and assessed on-street parking concerns across the district. These concerns were raised mainly by members of the public, the police, councillors, and highway officers since the previous review took place.

The requests are assessed based on a number of factors, including:

  • road safety,
  • accessibility,
  • congestion,
  • the possibility of just displacing a problem
  • how many people supported the change.

After completing all the site visits, we prepared a report of our findings and recommendations.

Authorisation

We have discussed and agreed the proposals with county councillors. The Parking and Enforcement Team Manager has authorised us to advertise our intention to make the changes. Once agreed, we advertise the proposals. This is a legal step that allows local residents and road users to share their views.

Advertisement and objections

We formally advertised our intention to introduce the proposals by way of a notice in the Surrey Mirror on 20 December 2024. Around the same time we also:

  • erected street notices on site at each location;
  • made drawings and a statement of reasons available to view online at the bottom of this page.
  • sent or delivered letters to any properties immediately in front of where changes are proposed.

The proposals are in the attached documents below. Open the Tandridge parking review 2024 - Statement of reasons (PDF), search for your road, then open the relevant drawing pack. The proposals are sorted by electoral division and then by town. The drawings are combined into packs for each councillor's division.

People then had a 28 days to send any comments or objections. This ended on 17 January 2025.

Approval

All objections, support and comment responses were compiled into a report, which included a recommended decision on how to proceed at each location. This was considered by the Parking & Traffic Enforcement Manager, following consultation with the county councillors, who agreed the final decisions. Anyone who responded to the advertisement was notified of the decisions by email or by letter prior to installation.

Implementation

The final decisions can be found in a report called Tandridge Parking Review 2024 - Decisions report (PDF) linked below. The painting of lines and road markings is scheduled to start soon and is expected to be completed within six months. After the lining is finished, we will order signage for specific locations that require it. The final traffic regulation order, which will make all changes from the parking review legally enforceable by Civil Enforcement Officers, will go live from June 19th onwards.
