We will be escorting several abnormal loads, containing pods for a community hospital development, through Surrey on Saturday 12 and Sunday 13 October.
The units require a police escort due to their extended widths.
The loads will travel in two convoys across the weekend. They will begin their journey from Northumberland on Saturday, 12 October, travelling via the A1, M1, and M25. They will travel as far as Junction 12 before heading south on the M3, exiting at J4. They will proceed along the A331, A31 and A3, before coming off at the Ripley Junction before turning and travelling south on the A3 to the Stoke Junction with the A320. There they will travel to their final destination of Woking Community Hospital. The Woking one-way system will be temporarily held in order to manoeuvre the loads safely through the town to their final destination.
The second convoy will then repeat this journey on Sunday, 13 October.
Sadly, we can’t give exact timings at this stage, but expect it will come off the M3 at Junction 4 no earlier than 9am.
We anticipate some temporary localised disruption as a result, and although it will be kept to a minimum, motorists are advised to be plan their journey with this in mind.
