What is happening?
THE SURREY COUNTY COUNCIL
Walton Lane and Dorney Grove (D3875) Weybridge/Shepperton (Weybridge Running Event) (Temporary Prohibition of Traffic) Order 2026
Surrey County Council propose to make the above mentioned Temporary Order, pursuant to Sections 16A and 16B of the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984 (“the Act”), the effect of which will be to prohibit all vehicles from entering or proceeding along (1) the entire length of Walton Lane (D3875) (Shepperton to Weybridge), including the Desborough Island arm; and (2) the bell mouth of Dorney Grove (D3875) Weybridge at its junction with Walton Lane, or any parts thereof. Such restriction shall also apply in relation to the riding, leading or driving of horses or any other animals. The Order will come into effect on 7 June 2026, for a period of one day and is required to facilitate the holding of an event on the highway, namely the Weybridge 10K, 5K, Half Marathon and Juniors Race running event. The temporary closure specified above will not apply to such vehicles being used in connection with the said event, or to anything done on the direction or with the permission of a police constable in uniform or a traffic marshal, or any sign placed by Surrey Police.
Emergency access will be maintained for the police, fire brigade and ambulance services; and for organisations responsible for dealing with the loss of supplies of gas, electricity, water or electronic communications, to premises in the area; and for the removal of any obstruction to traffic and also for essential carers. No exemption will apply for disabled persons’ vehicles. The prohibition will only be operative while the relevant traffic signs are displayed.
The Council are satisfied that, in order to avoid danger to persons or other traffic using the road to which this Order relates, or for preventing the likelihood of any such danger arising, vehicular access to premises situated in such lengths of roads specified in this Notice, or accessible only therefrom, may be restricted, save for emergency access as indicated above. It is anticipated that the temporary closure will apply between 8am and 1pm. Access for pedestrians will be unaffected. The Council are also satisfied, in accordance with subsection (3) of Section 16A of the Act, that the event to which the Order relates cannot be held otherwise than on a road. Alternative routes will be signed.
Further information concerning the event may be obtained from the event website: www.weybridge10k.com, or by email via the website or at events@surreycc.gov.uk, or by mail at the address below. A copy of the proposed Order, together with a plan showing the event route, may be inspected free of charge at Weybridge Library, Church Street, Weybridge, Surrey KT13 8DE, during normal opening hours.
