Highway Verges – Please be Aware
A message to Horley residents on behalf of the Parish Council
Concerns have been raised with the Parish Council regarding items being placed on highway verges, which might comprise an obstruction. The Council is aware of a number of places around the village where items have been placed on highway verges, and queries have been raised as to whether this is legal.
Highway verges are the responsibility of the County Council, and the County Council have advised that in most cases the public highway includes the verge, and extends up to the boundary of the adjoining land. Anything placed permanently on the highway may potentially comprise an obstruction, and to obstruct the highway is an offence. Before placing anything permanently on the highway, people are advised to contact the County Council seeking permission to do so. If an accident were to occur, such as a car swerving onto the verge to avoid an oncoming vehicle, and colliding with an obstruction, the person placing the obstruction is likely to be liable.

Have Your Say: Operational Policing Survey
Survey on an increase in council tax to help protect operational policing is launched
The Thames Valley Police and Crime Commissioner, (Andrew Stansfield) has launched a public survey on his proposal to increase the Police precept from the Council Tax, in order to fund increased police expenditure.
Anthony Stansfeld said: “The Thames Valley Police budget has been cut by £101 million over the last eight years which has resulted in significant cuts to police officer and staff numbers. This year the Government has encouraged all PCCs to raise the policing element of the council tax precept for all households. To prevent further damaging cuts to policing and restore some important frontline policing capability I would like to make use of this Government advice and raise the council tax precept accordingly.
The survey and more information, including the proposed amounts from each council tax band can be found by visiting: https://bit.ly/2QEkGkk
