Those residents who use Cranleigh High Street regularly say they are thrilled that they are now allowed to drive along the High Street at 20 miles per hour.
One told us that he could seldom drive at more than 3/5 miles per hour – and the longest it has taken him recently was 25 mins from the Common roundabout to the Obelisk junction of the High Street and the Ewhurst Road.
More improvements coming soon?
