Views Sought on Reported Excessive Noise and Anti-Social Behaviour on the A24
Mole Valley District Council has launched a public consultation to better understand reports of vehicles making excessive noise and carrying out acts of anti-social behaviour on a section of the A24, including roads in Mickleham and Westhumble, and the impact on people using these roads and those who live and work in the local area.
The feedback received from Mole Valley District Council’s (MVDC) seven-week public consultation, which ends on Friday 31 October 2025, will help inform whether any action is required to be taken in the future by MVDC, which could include the introduction of a Public Spaces Protection Order (PSPO), should there be sufficient evidence to support this.
PSPOs can be introduced in an identified location to help address specific concerns of anti-social behaviour. PSPOs give MVDC and Surrey Police the power to issue a Fixed Penalty Notice or start formal prosecution if one or more of the specific anti-social behaviour restrictions set out in a PSPO is breached.
The short online survey, which should take no longer than five minutes to complete, is available on molevalley.gov.uk/a24. Alternatively, paper copies of the consultation can be collected from the reception of MVDC’s Pippbrook offices in Dorking and Dorking Halls. For more information, please email [email protected] or call MVDC on 01306 885001.
Councillor Caroline Joseph, MVDC’s Cabinet Member for Services and Security, said: “Before it is decided how best to respond to the issues reported to us and the Police, it is essential that we first listen to the views from as wide a range of voices as possible to gain a clear picture of this matter. One possible outcome could be the introduction of a PSPO, but no decisions have yet been made. We require answers to questions that will help us gauge the impact of these reported issues on those who live, work and use the roads in this particular area of the district. We look forward to hearing from you.”
