When: Saturday 14 June 2025
Where: Merrow Depot, Merrow Lane, Guildford, GU4 7BQ
Time: 11:30am – 5:30pm (Special Educational Needs from 10:30am – 11:30am)

Last summer, hundreds of you joined us to see behind the scenes of Surrey Highways – and we had an amazing time! Kids loved playing “hook a duck,” climbing onto real rollers and gritters, and setting up their own mini roadworks on our giant play mat. Grown-ups had the chance to chat with our teams, learn about exciting projects like hydrorock drainage and road resurfacing, and sign up for the latest news.

This year, we’re bringing back all your favourites – plus even more games, vehicles to explore, and ways for you to get involved and have your say about the future of our roads and transport!

There’ll be:
Big trucks and machinery to climb aboard
Fun games and activities for kids (and adults too!)
Meet the teams who keep Surrey moving
Find out about new projects and plans
Share your ideas and feedback
