About the Community Travel Plan
The Chobham Travel Plan is a joint project involving Surrey County Council, service providers and you, the residents of Chobham, to help you to get to your destinations and access services without having to depend on your car or a lift from family or friends. It is being led by a Working Group that is continually looking for simple and practical ways that can make your journey easier, quicker or cheaper – with or without the use of a private car.
In addition, we are looking for opportunities to bring services into the village that might otherwise require you to travel away from Chobham. In these days of rising energy costs, increasing traffic and climate change, we are also trying to help your pocket, ease congestion and protect the environment.
The project’s origin lies in the Parish Plan (www.ChobQuest.co.uk), which made nearly sixty recommendations to improve our quality of life in Chobham. Many of these relate to transport and availability of services in the village, at which this project is targeted. To find out more about the origins and objectives of this project, click here.
Current Initiatives
The Working Group’s two current initiatives are to:
- Compile a series of Travelsheets to help you find the most convenient and cost-effective ways to get to frequent destinations, such as local hospitals, supermarkets and other facilities. Click here to access the directory of Travelsheets.
- Introduce a new and frequent Community Shuttle service to operate at peak hours between Chobham and Woking. The service is aimed at rail commuters (London, Guildford, etc); people who work in Woking; early & late shoppers; and, visitors to Woking’s leisure facilities (cinema, theatres and clubs).
