New Page on the Blog - Road Adoption Brookwood Hospital Estate
brookwood-hospital-roads-oct-08.pdf
The file above is a dossier on Road Adoption on the Brookwood Hospital Estate, with a table giving brief road by road information about the current stage reached in the process. It comes with the ‘health warning’ that altough it is as correct and full as I can make it, the situation is complex and I cannot guarantee total accuracy.
Road Adoption is a problem across not just in Surrey, but across the whole country; on the Brookwood Hospital Estate, where a number of developers have been involved, very few roads have been brought up to the standard necessary for the County Council to take them over and look after them. This is immensely frustrating for the residents, who quite reasonably expected, when they bought their houses, that there would not be a problem years later with getting standard street repairs and improvements carried out, just as with roads in other parts of Knaphill.
With much technical struggle - if computers used ink like old-fashioned pens, my fingers would be covered in the stuff - I’ve duplicated the more general information on a separate page of this site (link up in the top left corner) together with a pdf file holding only the road-by-road table.
If you have problems with either pdf, try saving it to your hard drive and opening it from there. Alternatively, contact me through this website and I will e-mail you a copy.
I will continue to check with the SCC Officer working on Knaphill Road Adoptions regularly, and post a revised version of the dossier when there are changes.
