About the project
Funded by Homes England Housing Infrastructure Fund, GRAHAM is collaborating with Surrey County Council to upgrade the A320 in Runnymede, between Chertsey and Ottershaw. This project will significantly enhance four junctions and two road connections, facilitating the construction of new homes across Runnymede.
The upgrades will ensure that all junctions and roads work together to improve traffic flow. Additionally, there will be enhancements for pedestrians and cyclists, including new crossing points, wider footpaths and cycle paths, and better access to public transport.
Set to commence in February 2025, the scheme is schduled to be complete by winter 2026 and includes:
- New pedestrian crossings and cycleways
- Widening and resurfacing the existing road
- Installing new traffic signals
- Upgrading the road’s drainage system
Latest Updates
Guildford Road Northbound Closure
As part of our improvements scheme on the A320 North of Woking, we have several utility crossings to carry out that lie beneath the A320.
The next utility crossings we need to carry out are beneath the section of Guildford Road northbound, To undertake this work, the Guildford Road northbound (between the St Peter’s Way roundabout and the Hospital roundabout) will be closed from 8pm Friday 27th June to 8am Sunday 29th June.
As we will have the width of the road excavated, we cannot allow access for any vehicles, including emergency service vehicles. The footpath on this section of road will remain open for pedestrians. During the above closure a diversion route will be in place via Chertsey using: St Peter’s Way eastbound, Chertsey Road, the A317, Bell Bridge Road, and returning to Guildford Road.
St Peter’s Roundabout Closures
To carry out surfacing works on St Peter’s Way Westbound we need to close St Peter’s Way Roundabout, labelled Ottershaw Roundabout on Google Maps.
The road will be closed from 8pm – 5am each night on Monday 30th June, Tuesday 01st and Wednesday 02nd July.
During the closures, a diversion will be in place by joining St Peter’s Way eastbound and using the M25 J11 roundabout to turn around and rejoining St Peter’s Way westbound.
St Peter’s Way Westbound Overnight Closure
From 8pm – 5am on Monday 07th July, the St Peter’s Way Westbound carriageway will be closed between the M25 J11 and Guildford Road.
During the closure, we will be moving our current lane closure to enable safe working room on the verge as opposed to the central reserve.
From 5am on the Tuesday morning, the St Peter’s Way westbound carriageway will remain running under 1 lane.
During the closure, a diversion will be in place via Chertsey using St Peter’s Way eastbound, Chertsey Road, A317, Bell Bridge Road and Guildford Road.
