FIXMYSTREET IN RH4 3NB
The following problems have been reported on Fix My Street within 2 miles of RH4 3NB:
Collision between cut-through traffic and parked car 24th April 2024, 29th April
The driver of the blue golf, in a hurry, avoided the London Road traffic lights by using Rothes Road as a cut-though. However, the driver encountered a resident’s car coming in the other direction attempting to park. Rather than stopping and waiting, the driver of the blue golf, in her haste continued through the small gap between the parking car and the parked grey mini on the other side of the road and caught her nearside front wheel on the offside front wheel of the parked grey mini forcing it to turn and mount the pavement causing considerable damage to the blue golf and the steering of the parked grey mini. This is just one example of the unsafe driving by car owners who speed down Rothes Road in an attempt to shave seconds off their journey. This must be stopped immediately as Rothes Road is single-carriageway width (due to parked cars) and therefore totally unsuited as a High Street by-pass making the consequent risk to residents, their children, grandchildren and parked cars, very high. Please do something now before joint community action is considered.

School lane muddy and puddled, 1st November
The school lane has been muddle and puddled for at least seven years. Pedestrians walking on the school lane have soiled wet feet, a large number of whom enter St Paul's School and make the floors dirty. Young children spend valuable learning time sitting on these floors wearing dirty shoes and often wet socks. This is uncomfortable, unpleasant and unhygienic.

The traffic signals are not affective on A25 / London Road crossings potential for car collision with crossing pedestrian, 27th October
Three pedestrian crossings at / near junction on A25 with London Road. Two of which have traffic lights. If traffic is built up on the high street and traffic has passed the light signals but unable to proceed beyond the third crossing (the one without traffic lights and situated at a significant distance beyond the two traffic lights (one of which outside Dorking Halls and one on London Rd junction)) during the green signal, the traffic will naturally wait until the traffic moves up the high street before it can continue on but this is a dead spot in terms of traffic control and the traffic is unable to see that the green man is signally for "safe" pedestrian crossing. I have experienced the confusion as a driver and the fear as a pedestrian crossing and passer by.

Entire footpath adjacent to St Pauls School, Dorking, 25th October
The footpath adjacent to St Pauls School Dorking is in a serious state of disrepair and has been for many years. During inclement weather, the area becomes a quagmire of mud and deep puddles which are impossible to navigate. The lane is used as an access route to the school and has hundreds of children and their parents using it each day. As you will see from the photos, it is impossible to navigate it without having to walk through mud and deep puddles. Children are regularly having to attend school with dirty and wet clothes/footwear. Young children at at serious risk of slipping and injuring themselves. The entire footpath needs to be properly resurfaced as a matter of urgency.

Multiple potholes adjacent to the St Paul’s Primary School, 23rd October
The potholes have been in the lane by the school for as long as anyone can remember. Ankles get twisted in the dry, and feet get soaked in the wet.
