The Surrey County Council policy proposal for the Cabinet meeting on 26th November 2019 is recommending that parking charges in the Countryside Estate, including Newlands Corner, cease on 1 April. This is excellent news. We hope the Cabinet accepts the recommendation.
Please write to your SCC councillor before the 26th and ask them to bring pressure to bear on the Cabinet.
The document does contain a comment about the Albury Estate having the right to charge but we would be hugely surprised if they did. We feel certain that this is just about ensuring that the Estate’s rights are not undermined by the SCC decision.
We will be certain to let you all know of the outcome from the meeting on 26th November.

~ Fabulous News !
~ After 3 years ~ ‘they’ve’ Finally given in to the obvious..
~ that there was NO way that MORE people would visit Newlands Corner with the introduction of Car Parking fees.. and in NO way, would it bring in a substantial income ..
A Victory for common sense .. ~ Hurray !

So now they have found the sums don’t add up, they have discovered the value of free and easy access to the countryside for health and welfare…as we said. At least they’re catching up.
