How long does your morning commute take? 20 minutes? 30 minutes? Maybe even an hour. Then ask yourself, how long should it take? It’s probably going to be at least half that time, but the notorious traffic in and around Guildford severely increases prospective journey times if you drive to work.
If you work out how much time you spend in the car each week doing your commute, you will probably be shocked to realise just how much time you lose per week, especially travelling into a heavily congested town centre like Guildford. Renting an office outside of busy town centres can severely reduce travel time and increase your available productive time.
Guildford is a bustling town centre and provides a number of office space options making it a popular location for business owners looking for workspace to rent. However, it does not take many traffic jams, lane closures and diversion routes along the A3 to realise that a significant proportion of your day is going to be lost to commuting. The good news is Tanshire Business Park offers an alternative, with Grade A office space near Guildford.
The location of Tanshire Business Park; in the Surrey countryside, means you do not have to spend your morning queuing in traffic. Instead, you can avoid congested town centres and make the most of quiet roads, reducing the time you lose daily by commuting.
A number of our tenants travel from surrounding locations such as Haslemere, Farnham, Godalming and Guildford. You only need to experience the traffic on a weekday morning when driving into Guildford to realise that you are going to have a long commute, with most of the time spent stuck in stop/start traffic.
However, the good is there is a better way to do your morning commute, as the scenarios below prove.
A number of our residents live in and around Haslemere, so let’s take their commute as an example. Driving via the A3 from central Haslemere to Tanshire Park takes just 20 minutes and this time is consistent, meaning you can expect the same travel time every day. When you look at Google Maps you will notice it should take just 20 minutes to drive via the A3 from Haslemere into central Guildford, but if you drive into Guildford between 8am-9am your journey time is likely to treble! This is shown on Google Maps with a lot of red road live traffic, meaning long delays.
If you live in Farnham and are currently commuting into Guildford then you should be able to drive along the Farnham Road in around 20 minutes, however trying to do it during rush hour can severely increase that estimated travel time, with regular road closures and traffic jams. Driving from Farnham to Tanshire Park along Waverley Lane / B3001 takes just over 15 minutes, which could save you a lot of time on your morning commute.

My morning commute has gone from an hour to just 15 minutes.” – Tim Butler, Innovation Visual
“Tanshire Business Park is set in a convenient location for our staff and clients as it’s close to Guildford, Farnham and the A3 and 5 minutes from Milford railway station.” – Malcolm Delahaye of SuperTrust UK
