The effect of the Order will be to clarify that electric vehicles can only connect and charge when parked in a designated electric vehicle parking space, new car parking places at Fairmount House, Bull Hill Leatherhead and the Skate Park, Guildford Road Leatherhead will be added and the introduction of designated long stay permit holder bays at the Upper Fairfield Leatherhead car park.
In addition, to clarifying the extent of the parking places at the existing Pippbrook, Dorking and Swan Centre, Leatherhead car parks, plans have been prepared showing the boundaries of these car parks.
There are other general updates to the Order including clarification that vehicles must not be parked on double yellow lines or any other surface markings where parking is prohibited; and that only roadworthy vehicles may be parked within Council car parks, and that vehicles must be parked for the primary purpose of parking only (thereby preventing use for storage, repair or sale).
The Order will come into operation on 18th November 2026. A copy of the Amendment Order, the 1997 Order, a statement of reasons and other accompanying documents may be seen during normal office hours at the Council's offices at Pippbrook, Dorking RH4 1SJ during its normal opening hours.
If any person wishes to question the validity of the above Amendment Order or any of the provisions contained in it, on the grounds that they are not within the powers conferred by the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984 or The Traffic Management Act 2004, or that any requirement of those Acts or of any Regulations made under them have not been complied with in relation to the Amendment Order, they may, within six weeks from the date on which the Amendment Order was made, apply to the High Court for that purpose.
