The Enterprise M3 Board met for the last time in March 2024 and Enterprise M3 LEP is no longer operating as an organisation.
For any enquiries relating to economic development across the counties of Hampshire and Surrey, please visit the Hampshire County Council website and Business Surrey respectively.
Please note that Enterprise M3 LEP staff have transferred to Hampshire County Council to continue to deliver services and activities in Hampshire, including the Growth Hub, the Careers Hub, work on key business sectors, and trade and investment.

The scheme involves strengthening of the Farnham Road Bridge, which is located in Guildford town centre, to the east of its junction with the A322.The bridge carries the A31 Farnham Road over the main Network Rail line between London Waterloo and Portsmouth.
This will ensure that a weight limit of 7.5 tonnes will not be needed and heavy goods vehicles and buses can continue to use the bridge.
Major impact on access to Guildford has been avoided and greater resilience provided for Enterprise M3’s investments across Guildford aimed at easing traffic congestion and unlocking growth.
