On 2 March local councillors attended the Swale Joint Transportation Board to explain why action was needed to improve safety on this complicated piece of road. We got good support from other councillors on the committee and it was agreed that Kent County Council Highway officers should prepare a report on the road arrangements here for the next meeting of the Board at the end of June. In debate councillors suggested that a site visit by officers involving local councillors would be desirable.
Getting this issue on Kent County Council’s agenda is only a start and there is still plenty of work to do. So please sign the petition if you haven’t done so already and encourage your friends and relatives to sign as well. As well as online signatories we have over eighty additional paper signatories, so in total more than 600 people have signed.
