    Notice of Petition

     

    Received from Tiziana Salter, 143 signatures

     

    The A24 Leatherhead By-Pass between the Beaverbrook and Givons Grove Roundabouts was surfaced with proprietary road material in 2006 which resulted in the lowest possible levels of noise pollution from traffic using the road. The By-Pass was then surface dressed to prolong the life of the road surface in Summer 2015 with large stones implanted in the surface dressing, a road surface which results in some of the highest levels of noise pollution from traffic using the road. We believe that the County Council should take the effect of the noise produced by vehicles travelling along a road on residents living close to the road when determining which road surface to select when surface dressing or resurfacing a road, as happened in 2006, and to surface dress and resurface roads with an appropriate surface having taken into account the impact that the noise generated by the road will have on residents living close to the road. We, the undersigned, hereby call on the County Council to resurface the A24 Leatherhead By-Pass between the Beaverbrook and Givons Grove Roundabouts using the road surface which results in the lowest possible noise pollution from traffic using the road, as in the past within the next six months and this reducing the unacceptable levels of noise pollution emanating from the road since the surface dressing took place in the Summer of 2015.

     

    A response will be tabled at the meeting.

     

     

    Decision:

    That the response, attached as Annex 1, be approved.
