On Wednesday 20th of September, Runnymede Borough Council's housing committee agreed to ban smoking on balconies across its property portfolio.
The council said it expects enforcement to be relatively straightforward with the majority of tenants adopting the new rules following clear communication on how balconies should be used.
Runnymede Council said all who said smoking should not be allowed on a balcony identified themselves as a non-smoker.

The closure will be from 9pm on Friday 23 February until 5.30am Monday 26 February 2024 and will be closed in both directions between Send and M25 Junction 10.

The diversions show routes either 25 miles going southbound and 28 miles going northbound.
