Linkfield Lane, Redhill - Amendment to Parking Restrictions

Overview

Thank you for your interest in our parking restriction amendment proposals on Linkfield Lane, Redhill. 

The legislation we must follow before introducing this scheme means that we need to allow objections and comments from the public to be considered before a final decision is reached about whether or not to go ahead with our preferred scheme in its current form.

The proposal:

The scheme has been progressed in response to a collision in 2023 involving 1 adult and 2 children as they crossed Linkfield Lane on their way to St Joseph’s Catholic Primary School.

A comprehensive assessment of safety was undertaken in 2023, and the above measures were recommended as part of our Road Safety Outside Schools programme.

The scheme aims to increase the safety for children and families crossing Linkfield Lane; to reduce vehicle speeds at the crossing point; to encourage more pupils and families to walk, cycle and wheel to school. The parking controls will

1. Prevent vehicles parking and/or stopping along Linkfield Lane in the vicinity of the proposed zebra crossing

2. Prevent obstructive parking and keep sight lines clear for both pedestrians using the zebra crossing and drivers on the approach to the crossing.

3. Prevent vehicles from parking too close to the proposed zebra crossing, improving the safety for pupils crossing in the area.

The above proposal will be advertised in the local press (The Surrey Advertiser). County and Borough Councillors, Stakeholders and the Police will be consulted.
