No Park and Ride at Linton

Find an alternative site which would work, Linton wouldn't because a.) It's too far from Maidstone, b.) Impossibility of bus lanes means no time advantage so few would actually use it c.) It's currently a protected greenfield area overlooking an area of natural beauty d.) It would add to the horrendous nearby flooding problems e.) It would make what's already a traffic black spot even worse.

Why is this important?

Heath road where the site is proposed is an established boundary helping to maintain the vital balance between urban and rural areas. Dumping thousands of tons of tarmac over 17 acres of prime farmland near the Greensands Ridge breaches that boundary and threatens our rural heritage. And worse still, for no proven benefit.
