Godstone sinkhole updates

A25, Godstone currently is closed in both directions due a large sinkhole. SES water, SGN and UK Power Networks are currently working on site.

While the situation is stabilising, it will be treated as an ongoing significant incident, which means all agencies in ßÙßÇÂþ»­ working closely to focus on supporting residents and moving to repair and recovery.

We understand the disruption and uncertainty this is causing residents and those traveling near the area. We will continue to update this page as the works continue.

Diversion routes:

The diversion route for the road closure is A25 Oxted Road, A22 Godstone Bypass, Eastbourne Road. This diversion route has also been symbolised to reduce the confusion for the motorists. We are ensuring that parking restrictions are in place on Eastbourne Road from Monday onwards for the end of half term when we expect traffic levels to increase.

Properties in the wider area now have access to water and power as normal and the impacted homes are confined within the cordon. More permanent repairs will be carried out once the site is deemed safe to work in.

Oxted Road ( A25) is expected to be down to 1 set of lights soon as SES Water have completed and replaced the mains valve opposite/ adjacent to Salisbury Road, on the Eastbound side of the A25. The set further up will stay in situ as this is allowing a standpipe to vent the smaller main being used to replace the supply of the larger one in the High Street. Traffic impact on these lights has been minimal as reported after Streetworks officer's visit,

SES Water have confirmed that water had been restored to properties within RH1 and RH9.

More information about these works can be found on .

Closure of Bullbeggars Lane and Church Lane:

Due to the traffic on Eastbourne Road, towards the A22 queuing back to Church Lane, Bullbeggars Lane and Church Lane have now been closed.

We will be updating this webpage as and when more information becomes available.

Information on these works can also be found on Update on Godstone sinkhole.

Construction works at the junction of Studios Road, Squire's Bridge and Road New Road

Summary: Shepperton Studios have a history dating back to 1931. They have had extension works ongoing since 2023. The development makes Shepperton Studios the second biggest film studio in the world with a total of 31 purpose-built sound stages alongside additional production accommodation, the whole site covering 1.5 million square feet. The completion of Shepperton is intended to allow incredible new shows, jobs and a boost for the economy.

Duration and Impact: Offline works (construction taking place that requires no traffic management) have been ongoing since 17 June 2024. This offline work is scheduled to take 12 weeks to complete. Traffic management will then be in place after this stage (around mid-September 2024) and will last approximately 24 weeks. This will be done to ensure the safety of road users and all other stakeholders.
