Chessington has applied for planning permission to change the layout and look of the Lodge Gate park entrance. The park would like to install a new entrance canopy, refresh the area and install a permanent security/baggage check area. This would definitely improve the guest's first impressions of the park, as this entrance area has started to look a bit dated over the past few years.
The description for the planning application says:
"Demolition of existing cabin, kiosks and erection of single storey ticket kiosk, entry gate structure, security structure, container shop. Reconfiguration of existing southern pedestrian entrance and associated landscaping"
Planning reference: 22/00193/FUL
