The Ash Road Bridge project is important because the closure of the level crossing will improve safety for local residents and users of Ash train station. It will also reduce traffic congestion in the area.  It will also provide much needed new connectivity for the new homes being developed in the local area.  

To open the bridge, Network Rail and Surrey County Council need to ensure it is safe, complies with regulations and get all the necessary paperwork in place. Some of these actions are taking longer than anticipated. Our goal is to work closely with Network Rail and Surrey County Council so that the bridge opens before road closures are needed. We will update our website with the latest information on a regular basis.
