Godstone sinkhole updates
A25, Godstone currently is closed in both directions due a large sinkhole. SES water, SGN and UK Power Networks are currently working on site.
While the situation is stabilising, it will be treated as an ongoing significant incident, which means all agencies in Surrey working closely to focus on supporting residents and moving to repair and recovery.
We understand the disruption and uncertainty this is causing residents and those traveling near the area. We will continue to update this page as the works continue.
Diversion routes:
The diversion route for the road closure is A25 Oxted Road, A22 Godstone Bypass, Eastbourne Road. This diversion route has also been symbolised to reduce the confusion for the motorists. We are ensuring that parking restrictions are in place on Eastbourne Road from Monday onwards for the end of half term when we expect traffic levels to increase.
Properties in the wider area now have access to water and power as normal and the impacted homes are confined within the cordon. More permanent repairs will be carried out once the site is deemed safe to work in.
Oxted Road ( A25) is expected to be down to 1 set of lights soon as SES Water have completed and replaced the mains valve opposite/ adjacent to Salisbury Road, on the Eastbound side of the A25.
The set further up will stay in situ as this is allowing a standpipe to vent the smaller main being used to replace the supply of the larger one in the High Street.
Traffic impact on these lights has been minimal as reported after Streetworks officer's visit,
SES Water have confirmed that water had been restored to properties within RH1 and RH9.
More information about these works can be found on SES Water website.
Closure of Bullbeggars Lane and Church Lane:
Due to the traffic on Eastbourne Road, towards the A22 queuing back to Church Lane, Bullbeggars Lane and Church Lane have now been closed.
We will be updating this webpage as and when more information becomes available.
Information on these works can also be found on Update on Godstone sinkhole.
