Work is continuing on Godstone High Street to fill and stabilise the underground mine network, and ground affected by the collapse that occurred in February 2025.

So far, says Surrey County Council, over 600 tonnes of grout have been put in place, ten metres below ground level. These stabilisation works will continue over the coming weeks.

Once the stabilisation works are complete, SES Water will be carrying out their works to fix the three water pipes that were affected by the road collapse.

Following this, our highways team will return to site for the final reconstruction of the road and pavements.

The council’s current expectation is that the road will be re-opened in the Spring, despite the increased works required to deal with the larger tunnel network that has been identified as our works progressed. Our focus remains on making the area safe and reopening the road as quickly as possible.
