Engaging Communities: A Consultation Update

Feb 12, 2024

We've been actively consulting and engaging with the local community on several smaller projects that form part of the overall Weyside Regeneration Project.

Recent Consultations:


January 2024 - Revised Council Depot Layout:

In January 2024, we consulted on the revised layout for the new council depot, a project that received approval in March 2023.   A planning application is being prepared and will be submitted to  Guildford Borough Council in the coming weeks.  More information about the new proposal can be found on the Depot page.


September 2023 - Phase 3 Proposals:

Our September 2023 consultation focused on Phase 3, where we unveiled plans for approximately 175 homes, featuring a mix of thoughtfully designed houses and apartments. Your feedback has been invaluable in shaping the vision for this crucial phase. A planning application has been submitted to Guildford Borough Council.  The Phase 3 page will be updated when the planning application has been validated.


Latest Developments: Stringers Common Deregistration and Restricted Works Application

After thorough informal and formal consultations, last year we submitted an application to the Secretary of State for the deregistration and exchange of an area of common land, namely Stringers Common. This application also includes proposed restricted works on the common land. We awaiting the outcome of the application. The review process involves careful consideration by the Secretary of State, taking into account various factors, including community feedback and environmental impact assessments.


Once we receive the decision on the application, we will share the outcome with you.
