Our improvements

We've created a new 5km accessible route between Ockham Park and Painshill junction, improving connectivity across the local network of footpaths and bridleways.

The route:

  • connects with existing paths across Wisley and Ockham commons
  • includes five new bridges over the M25 and A3 - three replacements and two which cross at points that were previously inaccessible

The route

There is a shared use cycle path that runs alongside the new Wisley Lane. It crosses the A3 and Stratford Brook via two new bridges and gives better, safer access to Wisley village and the RHS Gardens. 

Then it continues as a bridleway alongside Wisley Common and the A3 to the Cockcrow Heathland Bridge, where the main path splits and joins other trails across the commons and reaches Ockham Common and the Ockham Bites cafe. 

Beyond there, the new and improved trails cross the M25 via the new Clearmount and Sandpit Hill bridleway bridges (Sandpit Hill bridge is the longest on the scheme). The bridleway then crosses the A3 via Redhill Road bridge, where the paths merge. Together, these four bridges link each quadrant around the junction:

  • Ockham Common
  • Wisley Common
  • Chatley Wood
  • Buxton Wood

The bridleway continues northeasterly alongside the A3 to reach Seven Hills Road and the Painshill junction for access to Cobham and the surrounding areas.  

Horse-riders, pedestrians and cyclists will be able to travel over the A3 safely using the Cockcrow Heathland bridge
