The Surrey County Council Public Footpath 32 (Epsom & Ewell) and Public Bridleway 33 (Epsom & Ewell) Temporary Prohibition of Traffic Order 2024 was made on the grounds of public safety due to construction work taking place on or near the highway.

The Order as continued prohibits all traffic on foot or by any other means from entering or proceeding in that length of:
Public Footpath 32 (Epsom & Ewell) which extends for about 282 metres in a south-easterly direction from its junction with Public Bridleway 146 (Epsom & Ewell), (Grid reference: 520396 157566) to its junction with Public Bridleway 33 (Epsom & Ewell) (Grid reference: 520669 157489),
