loading bay
The Surbiton Neighbourhood Committee made an Experimental Traffic Management Order for the Ewell Road cycle route permanent in March 2026, despite objections.
In March 2026, the Surbiton Neighbourhood Committee voted to make the Experimental Traffic Management Order (ETMO) for the Ewell Road cycle route permanent. This decision followed discussions about the loading bay outside 140-142 Ewell Road, which is a designated area for loading and unloading goods. Objections had been raised regarding the bay's operational hours and layout.
The Kingston Cycling Campaign and six individual respondents objected to the loading bay, stating it obstructed the cycle path, particularly during peak times. Concerns also included the allowance of parking within the bay. The committee's vote means the ETMO, which governs the cycle route and associated loading bay, will continue in its current form.
