Proposed School Street - Ewell Castle - Face to Face Engagement Event - Monday 9th March 5pm - 7pm

Proposed School Street - Ewell Castle

We are writing to invite you to a face-to-face engagement event to give you the opportunity to ask any questions that you might have about our proposal to introduce a School Street on Church Street and Glyn Close for Ewell Castle School.

 The event will take place at the school on Monday 9 March 5pm-7pm

Our Proposal 

We are proposing to install a School Street on both Church Street and Glyn Close. The proposed operating times for the Ewell Castle School Street are: 

8:00 am – 8:45am & 3pm – 4:15pm Monday to Friday, term time only 

During these set times, only vehicles with an exemption will be permitted to enter the zone.  Signage will be displayed at each entry and closure point informing drivers of the timed restrictions in place. The School Street will be enforced with the use of Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) cameras to ensure the success of our proposal 

 Public Engagement 

Our public engagement is designed specifically to gather insight and feedback from residents and highway users on our proposals. All comments received during this initial stage are reviewed, considered and shared with County Councillor’s, helping shape the design and influencing the decision on whether the scheme should proceed. 

Objections and comments are not replied to at this stage. If the scheme progresses, Surrey County Council will use the Experimental Traffic Order (ETRO) process to implement the School Street. This process provides flexibility and enables changes to be made following feedback from the public and statutory consultees. The ETRO consultation will run for the first 6 months after the scheme has been launched.  After the 6 months, comments and objections will be taken into consideration when deciding if the School Street should be amended or be made permanent.  

Please note that you can leave comments via the webpage or write to us. However, we cannot accept comments on this proposal via email or phone.
