You told us... parking issues outside school locations during pick up and drop off times in the village of Send are very busy and some drivers are parking inconsiderately, causing potential hazards to other highway users.
We responded by... patrolling the schools mainly during afternoon school finishing times ensuring that vehicles are parking legally and safely. Some drivers have been issued warnings in relation to the manner in which their vehicles have been parked and these patrols will continue until the end of this term.


You told us... that as a result of resident's responses in the Send Marsh area through the street a week initiative, speeding with particular focus along the Send Marsh Road has been identified as a local issue.
We responded by... carrying out covert speed checks to see if there is a genuine speeding issue and in response, a neighbourhood issue has been created. Local officers will be conducting overt speed checks throughout the location at random times and days to assist in decreasing the number of speeding vehicles using this road.


You told us… that parking in Ripley, with specific focus on the Rose Lane/High Street junction and at weekends during the farmers’ market, and parking in bus stops is a problem.
We responded… by conducting high-visibility patrols at various times seven days a week, recording vehicle details where necessary, using methods of education, giving warnings and issuing fines when and where required. The aim of these patrols, conducted jointly with Guildford Borough Council parking enforcement officers, is to ensure that the location is as safe as possible for all highway users including pedestrians and cyclists.
