Horley High Street, Subway and Central car park Improvements

The Council is proposing improvements to Horley High Street, subway and Central car park so that they better serve local people, are more welcoming and to help boost the local economy.

Last spring and autumn, they asked residents, shoppers and businesses for feedback on emerging ideas (principles) and designs for Horley High Street and the subway. They also asked how people use the town centre, to inform their plans.

Latest designs – February 2023

They are now sharing more detailed designs for the High Street and subway improvements, along with new plans for the Central Car Park.
