AS-Inf4: Infrastructure Priorities
The following projects are identified as local priorities for infrastructure improvements, which should be considered by MVDC, in consultation with the Ashtead community, for funding through the neighbourhood allocation of the Community Infrastructure Levy:
- Provide public toilet facilities adjacent to the Queen Elizabeth II Playing Field, either at the Old Pavilion off Greville Park Road or near the Youth Centre.
- Install Real Time Passenger Information at the following bus stops in the village: on the north side of The Street and on both sides of Barnett Wood Lane, by Ashtead Pond.
- Improved parking outside the shops on Barnett Wood Lane.
- Improvements to pedestrian access on narrow roads with no paved footpaths, where consultation with local residents suggests that this would be supported, where there would not be an adverse impact on the character of the area and where Surrey Highways Authority’s Road Safety Audits demonstrated that both vehicular and pedestrian safety could be ensured.
- Projects to promote and improve safe cycling routes, taking a holistic view of cycle links both within Ashtead and to Epsom and Leatherhead town centres and schools.
- Provide a pedestrian crossing across the A24 at or near the junctions of Farm Lane and Bramley Way, subject to permission and availability of additional funding from Surrey Highways Authority.
- Improve signage to public car parks such as at Grove Road and adjacent to Ashtead Peace Memorial Hall, to encourage use of car parks and minimise on-street parking and subject to permission and availability of additional funding from Surrey Highways Authority.
