A major Strategic site guided by LPSS Policy A25 (See below).
It is also covered by the Strategic Sites SPD (See Below). We have extracted from this SPD the section concerning Gosden Hill and also provide the full SPD.
The Policy also highlights issues that that make the site viable and sustainable these include:-
Road Links
An improved junction on the A3 comprising the relocated A3 southbound off-slip, a new A3 southbound on-slip and connection via a new roundabout to the A3100, with associated infrastructure on the A3100 corridor within Burpham
Consideration to be undertaken as part of the development management process of the potential opportunity to provide an all movements junction of the A3 trunk road with the A3100 London Road, the B2215 London Road and the A247 Clandon Road.
Land could potentially be required to be safeguarded for the provision of a connector road to the B2215 London Road/A247 Clandon Road
Park and Ride
Land and park and ride facility of a sufficient scale as required by projected demand and in order to operate without public subsidy in perpetuity
Bus Services
The provision of extended and/or new bus services to serve the site and which will also serve the eastern suburbs of Guildford and the town centre
Rail Station
Land made available for Guildford East (Merrow) railway station, and necessary and proportionate contribution towards the provision of the station
(Note the development is also considered as part of the emerging Sustainable Movement Corridors in Guildford)
The posters used in the October 2024 consultation can be found on the developers website See Link. Some of the posters are also shown below.

Pressures for development are increasing. Planning rules are being eased. The Society’s commitment to standing up for Guildford is needed more than ever.
