Council
Woking Town Centre PSPO Now in Force: £100 Fines
In force since 28 October: officers can fine people £100 for street drinking, masked anti-social behaviour and intimidation in Woking town centre.
Anyone who has lived in Woking for a decade has watched the town centre change shape more than once, and change is the hardest thing to follow while it is actually happening. It rarely announces itself. It starts as a notice cable tied to a lamppost, a paragraph in a committee paper, a set of figures at the back of a council report.
Woking Online reads those papers so you do not have to. We take the borough’s planning register, the reports that go before committees and the crime data the police publish, pull out what matters for the town, for Horsell and Knaphill, Byfleet and West Byfleet, Pyrford, Goldsworth Park, Maybury, Sheerwater and Old Woking, and write it up plainly, with the original document linked in the story.
We also keep the everyday pages accurate and dated: collection days, the cost of leaving a car in town for three hours, how the council tax bands work here. Those pages are why most people find us in the first place, and we treat them as seriously as the news.
