I would like this segment of the A24 [https://www.waze.com/editor/?env=row&zoom=4&lat=51.22939&lon=-0.32304&segments=121542858](https://www.waze.com/editor/?env=row&zoom=4&lat=51.22939&lon=-0.32304&segments=121542858) downlocked so that a forthcoming roadworks closure [http://www1.surreycc.gov.uk/highways/recordUtility.aspx?id=-1056491&town=DORKING&roadname=DEEPDENE+AVENUE&district=Mole+Valley&worksID=MA400-ITS3966089](http://www1.surreycc.gov.uk/highways/recordUtility.aspx?id=-1056491&town=DORKING&roadname=DEEPDENE+AVENUE&district=Mole+Valley&worksID=MA400-ITS3966089) can be recorded.

More generally, the A24 is only a minor highway, so according to the UK Locking Policy should only be locked to level 3. Perhaps someone could downlock the whole road?

I am one of the AM’s for the area. Level 4.

I’ve downlocked to L3 for some nearby sections. I’m limited on screen time today so can’t do more but if no-one else does other stuff I will tomorrow (hopefully).

I’ve been along the A24 from Leatherhead down to the coast and downlocked all L5 segments of minor highway to L4.

Although it’s not a trunk route, the A24 is a pretty major one. The Wiki says “…particularly important sections may be locked at level 4 by a local, active AM/CM if considered strictly necessary.”.

Well you’re local and active - so I’ll leave the decision to you! :lol: Now it’s all at L4 or lower, you can decide whether to bring it down to L3.
