Wisley Flower Show: road users advised to plan their journeys

Road users are advised to allow extra time for journeys if they are travelling in the area of the Wisley Flower Show in Surrey.

The event, which runs from Tuesday 2 to Sunday 7 September, is expected to attract 40,000 people over the five days and may affect journey times along the A3, particularly between 9am and 1pm.

Road users are asked to plan their journeys and allow extra time as routes around Wisley, including the A3, are expected to be busier than normal. Traffic officers at the Highways Agency’s regional control centre at Godstone will be monitoring traffic conditions and setting signals to keep traffic moving. A dedicated Traffic Officer Patrol will also provide enhanced vigilance around Junction 10, M25 enabling it to respond to incidents and congestion on both the M25 and A3.
