Fire Safety Services in Totton
Totton
Totton is the largest town in Hampshire’s New Forest District, situated approximately six miles west of Southampton and two miles northeast of the New Forest. With a population of around 30,000, Totton developed significantly after World War II, expanding from a small riverside settlement into a suburban centre distinguished by its mix of residential zones and light industrial areas. The town retains its riverside charm while offering modern amenities.
Transport infrastructure in Totton is well established. Totton railway station lies on the South Western Main Line, providing regular services to Southampton, Bournemouth, and London Waterloo. Major roads such as the A36 and nearby M27/M271 junction serve the town directly, while local bus routes connect Totton with Southampton, Romsey, and surrounding villages. River crossings and footpaths along the Test River enhance both transport and leisure connectivity.
Economically, Totton balances retail, light industry, and service sectors. The centre features supermarkets, convenience stores, cafés, and national chains. Industrial estates on Salisbury Road and Testwood Road host automotive workshops, builders, fabricators, and logistics firms. Totton’s workforce also includes professionals engaged in education, healthcare, and local trades, with many commuting to Southampton or the New Forest.
The town benefits from a range of community resources. Totton College and local primary schools serve the educational needs of the area, while sports clubs, community centres, and green spaces provide leisure opportunities. Nearby, the New Forest and Test Valley open landscapes offer popular walking, cycling, and outdoor recreation spots.
