38: The Reigate dog group and ideas for a Redhill town centre bridge… and more

Now what changes would you like to see in Redhill? Pippa has been giving me a tour and she's got a really interesting plan to make it easier to get from the railway station into the centre of town and bypass that awful and dangerous junction by the bus station there. And of course, once you're in town, you can go and support some of the independent shops, the cafes, the restaurants.

And also you can pop into our friends at the Belfry and you can buy things there. And also you can pop up Station Road and go into Woodlands Letting Agency. They're also great supporters of the show, of course. So hear what Pippa has in mind and whether you agree. This is what happened when we had our conversation, which started off just by the bus station.

Well, that's the sound of the 424 bus just leaving the bus station here in Redhill. I was looking around and there are an awful lot of roads kind of going into the bus station and out of the bus station and round the roundabout as well. Pippa Martin is with me from the Reigate and Redhill Society. And this is one of your issues, isn't it, Pippa? You want to see a bit of a change here.

Because it is a very busy road, a very busy junction. You probably know it. Sainsbury's up to one side. I was going to say millionaires over there, but of course it's not anymore, is it? It's the picture house. It's the flats there, which kind of fit in to where the old cinema was.

What do you reckon is the view of people when they come to Redhill and they get off the train station and they're trying to find the Belfry? Do they know where to go and how to get there?

We can tell that it's noisy here. Let's pick up our bag. Let's walk into Red Hill itself. And this isn't a madcap idea, is it? Because you've actually spoken to various architects and you've looked at various designs.
