We help residents have a voice on local matters

We are a non-political, voluntary association of residents in north Weybridge who care about local quality of life, community and heritage. Open to all local residents.

PPDRA originated in the 1960s . We have a very positive record of making a difference on a range of major issues that affect our part of Weybridge:

• Campaigning against dangerous rat run traffic in our residential roads, helped get traffic calming measures and a 20 MPH zone (which many residents want extended east of Thames Street)
• Helped prevent a huge twin loop junction at Walton Bridge, which would have taken away public riverside land and sent more traffic along Walton Lane and Thames Street and through Portmore Park
• Worked to overcome obstacles to Broadwater Path — which gives public access to Broadwater, opening the way for public funding to save the lake from silting up
• Years of liaising with the Environment Agency on riverside amenities and flood planning
• Informed comment on local planning applications
• Conducting traffic surveys to monitor local flows
• Working with St George’s Junior School on community relations and school traffic
• Helping residents communicate with Surrey and Elmbridge Councils on local issues
• Newsletters, community meetings, website, and more!

We request an annual subscription to help cover costs, of £3 per member; £5 per household (or another sum if you wish)
