The Hindhead Tunnel project has been the biggest investment into the local road system for decades. Its purpose is to remove the last remaining section of single carriageway road between London and Porsmouth, reducing congestion, improving road safety and air quality.

Over the years Fernhurst and its surrounding areas have had a large number of traffic calming measures  and speed limit reductions implemented. Most of these we feel are disproportionate to danger on the roads.

We have learnt to live with the speed camera in the Fernhurst and the 50mph speed limit at Kingsley Green but we feel that some of the more recent efforts have been excessive!

The 'hashing' of the centre of the road at Kingsley Green (to create the illusion of a narrower road) is pointless. What was a safe overtaking straight is now a bottleneck as overtaking slow vehicles is now illegal!

Other measures include red and yellow paint that seems to have been applied to the road in various locations, the dangerous traffic island by the Village hall and more recently the un-slightly traffic crossing.

Last, But by no means least the illuminated sign brigade has invaded us! With the 30mph sign at the base of Fridays Hill, two signs in the village centre and the broken sign at Kingley Green Fernhurst has its fair share!
