Victoria Way reopens to vehicles in both directions

Date: 

Wednesday, 9 February, 2022

Victoria Way (A320) will reopen to vehicles in both directions from 6am, Thursday 10 February 2022.

The highway reopening follows completion of works to check and install temporary fixings to more than 800 exterior panels of Victoria Square’s hotel development. With these works complete, representatives from Surrey County Council, Sir Robert McAlpine, Health & Safety Executive and Woking Borough Council have consulted and agreed that Victoria Way can reopen.

Significant work and testing to identify a permanent solution to the exterior panel issue continue between Sir Robert McAlpine and its sub-contractor, Prater. It is expected that agreement will be reached during February, allowing works to start as soon as possible.

During the highway closure, work to improve a small section of the highway surface was completed.

In addition, works to repair a water leak that closed two west-bound lanes of Victoria Way before the junction with Chobham Road (A3046) has also been completed, with the highway reopening yesterday.

Woking Borough Council would like to thank local businesses, road users and residents for their patience during both these emergency works.
