Hot weather

The Met Office (opens new window) has forecast hot weather across Guildford. Read our advice during hot weather.

Bin collections

Due to the high temperatures, our bin crews will be starting collections earlier than usual to help keep them safe in the heat. Please make sure your bins are out the night before, as collections will take place from 5.30am for the rest of the week. Thank you for helping our crews work safely during the hot weather.

Infrastructure Delivery Plan

The Infrastructure Delivery Plan (IDP) details key infrastructure which supports the Local Plan

The Plan also includes an Infrastructure Schedule. We'll review and change it as we work on the Local Plan.  

The latest Infrastructure Schedule is Appendix 6 of the Local Plan. 

Infrastructure baseline 

The Infrastructure Baseline study was used to inform the Infrastructure Delivery Plan. It examines Guildford's existing infrastructure. This includes the following types: 

  • physical 
  • community 
  • social 

The plan reviews: 

  • type 
  • quality 
  • existing capacity 

For some infrastructure types, it notes any plans which shaped past development.

Education Review 

The Education Review considers the need for extra school places while the Local Plan is in effect. We used it to consider whether we needed to plan for new education infrastructure.
