One Chuch Road - demolition begins - including public road sign
Looks like the removal of name plate for Church Road was the first inconvenience for local residents. Lets hope that the Demolition Contractors reinstate this as soon as possible to allow delivery vehicles a chance of finding Church Road. Planning Enforcement officers were not interested. Are all these advertising hoardings really necessary in a Conservation area ?

Today a delivery lorry -
tomorrow an ambulance?
Here are two photographs I took earlier this afternoon as the latest 'victim' to be denied access to Oaks Close gets stuck.
A bit stuck there on the left! Any better on the right? Well, no! It's stuck there as well. A bit frustrating though, after loading up and bringing the stuff from Sutton.
Wasting people's time loading and trying to deliver undeliverable loads and keeping people waiting at the other end as they wait for supplies to continue work is one thing. But supposing the vehicle had been an ambulance; the delay while the vehicle is abandoned and paramedics have to make their way on foot could be the difference between someone's life and death!
Doesn't Surrey County Council Care? Could not the Councillors and officers have worked out that if they introduced parking restrictions in neighbouring roads but did nothing in the road nearest the Station it would only exacerbate the already existing problems in that road? Couldn't they?
The cynics say they knew exactly what they were doing. Being piqued because not everyone was happy with their proposed simplistic 'solution', they will let us stew in our own juice so that we will willingly accept whatever they want to impose on us.
My own feeling is that having given up on their proposed solution they simply could not be bothered and let the thing fall by default. In other words it was thoughtlessness and negligence.
Mole Valley District Council, to its credit, is doing what it can about bin collection. MVDC Environment Department are advising cars & vans on Tuesday afternoon that vehicles preventing bin collection on Wednesday will be ticketed by Surrey Police and possibly removed; and the Department is monitoring the situation on Wednesdays. Also if, despite these efforts, no bin lorry is able to get through on a Wednesday, they will send out a lorry on the following Saturday. This use of personnel on Tuesday afternoon & Wednesday morning must cost money and, of course, if a bin lorry has to be sent out on a Saturday even more expense will be involved - extra cost to MVDC thanks to the ineptness of SCC.
We appreciate the efforts of our MVDC Ward Councillor, Bridget Lewis-Carr, in helping to find a solution to the bin problem. How about our SCC Councillor helping resolve the access problem?
