The Council has applied for permission to make changes to its original Ellice Road car park design (Application No 2018/1489) which was granted permission in April this year. The revised application can now be viewed online at www.tandridge.gov.uk/planning.

The main change to the original design is that the building will no longer have side ramps, making it less bulky. This will improve the whole car park and allows for a larger area of landscaping between the car park and properties on Ellice Road, giving them better screening. As a result of the changes the car park will now have 297 spaces, three fewer than in the original design.

The other key amendment to the proposal is that a one-way system around Amy, Ellice and Beatrice Roads is not now included as part of the application.  Having listened to residents’ concerns and subsequent discussions with transport consultants and Surrey Highways, the Council has agreed to keep the two-way access on these roads for a twelve month trial basis. If, after this period, there is too much traffic on these residential roads, a one-way system will be reconsidered.

Construction will start in January 2019. This date was agreed to ensure the existing car park would be open in the run up to Christmas 2018 and that the new car park would be ready for Christmas 2019, with all construction complete by either September or October 2019, weather permitting.

The delivery of additional visitor and business parking for the town is key to the RegenOxted programme, which will also lead to the removal of the gasholder, an Urban Redesign project and a hub to encourage the start-up and growth of local businesses.

 Surrey County Council has agreed in principle to some minor temporary amendments to parking restrictions on some local roads. This will provide additional on-street parking in safe locations while the work takes place.

  • Parking on Gresham Road and Station Approach will be restricted to two hours between 8.30am and 6pm, on certain days.
  • The waiting restriction times on Granville Road, Wheeler Avenue, Peter Avenue, Park Road, Detillens Lane, Rockfield Road and Uvedale Road, will change to make it easier for local people to park and shop.
