UPDATE: UNAUTHORISED ENCAMPMENT AT SUMMER ROAD RECREATION GROUND   

The Courts have granted an Order for the Removal of Persons and Vehicles unlawfully on Summer Road Recreation Ground.  This means that the Council is now authorised to proceed with enforcement action, that being to remove the vehicles off the land with their occupants and their property.

If the vehicles/caravans still remain on the land, having been served with this Order, bailiffs will be instructed to enforce this Order as soon as possible. A full clear up will be arranged and the site secured at the earliest opportunity.

Further updates will be posted on the Council’s website, www.elmbridge.gov.uk/news/travellers-update/ .

FINAL UPDATE: The unauthorised traveller encampment at Summer Road Recreation Ground has now vacated the site. A full clear up has been arranged and the site has been secured.
