Road alterations, 2nd September

Thu, 02 Sep 2021 13:53:09 +0100
51.216326 0.808146

I cycled up Charing hill this morning at about 5 mph with about 20 vehicles behind me. I have seen similar queues behind farm vehicles coming up the hill on the A252 The recent road alterations ( I could not call them improvements) are not working. It was a missed opportunity to put in a cycle path on the up hill side, there are far too many unnecessary road signs. The usable space has not been used wisely.

The storm drain is directly outside our front door. We have noticed our property shakes when traffic drives over it. It also lifts and falls producing a distinct clunking noise. I am not sure if it has been repaired recently but it seems to be in need of some maintenance.

Speeding traffic causing house movement and parking lorries, 12th December

Sat, 12 Dec 2020 10:23:32 +0000
51.206544 0.796817

With the M20 be closed over night we have lorries speeding past our house on the A20. We have experienced this for the past several months with the house shaking all night as lorries thunder past. This is now causing house movement as we have cracks appearing in walls and ceiling’s. They do not abide by the speed limit of 40mph The using of M20 for op stack is not a success as the lorries are using the A20 instead and again are not sticking to the 40 speed limit and are parking overnight across the road from our row of houses. We have even had to ask lorries trying to park to leave the lay-by outside of the houses as they block driveways

The drains along the Northern bypass are pretty much all blocked up with mud, leaves and other detritus. Some even have grass growing out of them. Yet there is enough money to waste on crash barriers and new road markings?

The potholes have been in this section (Westwell Leacon) of the A20 for a while now. They only seem to be growing in size. Also more potholes are appearing in close proximity to the potholes which have been there for a longer period of time. It is becoming almost impossible to not hit a pothole. The potholes are big enough to be causing serious damages to vehicles.
