Motorists are in for an even bumpier ride along Elmbridge Road in Cranleigh because the potholes aren’t doing their job!

Why did Surrey’s highwaymen decide Elmbrifge Road needed sleeping policemen to slow down the traffic when there are more potholes than on the golf course at Wentworth?

Almost every access road into Cranleigh has been closed. At the same time, work people deal with water issues through burst pipes or highway works – including a load of sleeping policemen along Elmbridge Road, giving everyone the hump. Motorists wander aimlessly, looking for a way into the Cranleigh village. Some give up and go home, while others access banks and supermarkets in nearby Horsham.

By the way, Lloyds Bank in Godalming has closed, but Nat West is still open. Nationwide is the last bank standing in Cranleigh, and it is open only three days a week.

WW understands the residents of West Cranleigh called for measures to slow down traffic. Aren’t the potholes doing their job these days?

It wouldn’t be so bad if they had also filled the crater-like potholes on the approach to the old rsilwsy bridge and traffic lights outside the former Hewitts site, but that would be too much to expect.

So, there you have it, folks. The Council can spend a small fortune installing speed bumps that no one needs or wants, but it can’t, while it’s at it, fill some of the worst potholes in Cranleigh!

It’s so infuriating.   Should we all refuse to pay our road tax until we have some decent road to travel along? And couldn’t the council and utility companies liaise and not put the Closed Signs and Diversion Signs up when there isn’t a decent road into the Isle of Cranleigh?

The Waverley Web heard that due to the swimming pool closure the locals have found a new sport to help them keep fit.
