In less than a month voters head to the polls in a landmark Surrey election.
On Thursday May 7, for the first time in over 50 years, local government will change as the county council merges with its 11 boroughs and districts and will be split into two mega authorities, called East and West Surrey.
Elmbridge, Epsom & Ewell, Mole Valley, Reigate & Banstead, and Tandridge folk will do the same for East Surrey.
Guildford, Runnymede, Spelthorne, Surrey Heath, Waverley and Woking residents will vote in West Surrey elections.
The boundaries fit existing divisions at Surrey County Council, but there will be two councillors for each area instead of the current one. Significantly, it will mark the end of borough councillors.
Counts will take place at the existing boroughs and results sent to central hubs in Reigate for East Surrey and Runnymede for the West
Results are expected to be announced on May 8.
How many councillors will represent each area:
Elmbridge: 18 councillors across nine divisions
Epsom & Ewell: 10 councillors, five divisions
Guildford: 20 councillors, 10 divisions
Mole Valley: 12 councillors, six divisions
Reigate & Banstead: 20 councillors, 10 divisions
Runnymede: 12 councillors, six divisions
Spelthorne: 14 councillors, seven divisions
