Residents invited to have their say on Barnham Road improvements
Residents are being invited to help shape the future of Barnham Road at a public meeting organised by Barnham and Eastergate Parish Council.
The community engagement meeting will take place at Eastergate Village Hall at 7pm on Wednesday, November 18, giving local people the opportunity to raise concerns about road safety, traffic problems and potential improvements.
Speeding, traffic volumes, pavement conditions, pedestrian crossings and accessibility will all be up for discussion.
The initiative follows growing concerns about the condition and safety of the road, with a dedicated Barnham Road Working Group established by the parish council in late 2025.
The aim of this group is to improve the general look, feel and safety along the stretch of Barnham Road between Eastergate Village Hall and the war memorial roundabout. Since its launch, the group has been liaising with the relevant authorities to drive improvements, make suggestions and share residents’ concerns.
The parish council wants the latest meeting to give local people an opportunity to explain what works, what does not and what changes they would like to see over the next six months.
The evening will include a short presentation about work already undertaken and findings gathered so far, followed by an informal discussion.
Residents will be able to raise concerns, suggest improvements and help shape the next stage of the project.
