Despite UK Government advise <ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.gov.uk/coronavirus|title=Coronavirus (COVID-19): what you need to do|website=GOV.UK|language=en|access-date=2020-04-15}}</ref> work continues with redevelopments in Redhill, most notably the construction of a cinema complex. Where objections and surprise have circulated on social media posts as to whether this constitutes “Essential Work” or is an “Essential Service,” the local council, and a number of councillors, appear to endorse the work describing it as “#Progress.” The local economy appears to take precedence over the NHS's fight and struggle with Covid-19.

The construction of a cinema complex would appear to be of more importance.
