The Cheam entrance to Nonsuch Park is closed to all vehicles except for vaccinations this weekend.
It comes after Mansion House in Nonsuch Park recently transformed into a vaccination centre for those receiving jabs to immunise them against Covid-19.
At the begining of January, council authorities warned that the park would likely appear significantly busier as Londoners from the area flock to get their doses of the vaccine.

A spokesperson for Epsom and Ewell Council said: "Due to increased numbers using the park and with large numbers of people attending the vaccine centre, the park entrance, road and car parks have become very busy in recent days.
"With the NHS increasing the number of vaccinations from Saturday, the decision to close access to general park users via the Cheam Gate and use it for the vaccine centre only has been made to ensure the safety of all.
"This decision will be reviewed next week."
