Air quality action plan

As part of its local authority air quality management responsibilities, the Council has a statutory duty to produce an Air Quality Action Plan setting out the actions that it and other stakeholders will take to improve and safeguard air quality within Spelthorne. The draft AQAP was subject to a six-week statutory public consultation which ran from 20 May - 30 June to capture the views of Spelthorne residents and businesses, as well as those of DEFRA and other statutory consultees including Surrey County Council, National Highways, and neighbouring local authorities. An analysis of the consultation responses can be found in the downloads section of this page.

The draft AQAP was revised to reflect the views and comments received during the consultation, including those from DEFRA, and approved by Spelthorne Borough Council's Environment and Sustainability Committee in December 2024.
