Gridlock misery

What an absolute shambles, something that is meant to alleviate traffic actually does the complete opposite causing gridlock and misery for local (J8) residents. Effectively making us feel trapped in our own homes. During one community SpeedWatch session at the time of operation Brock over 500 vehicles were recorded traveling in one direction in one hour through the small village of Hollingbourne as drivers desperately searched for alternative routes causing gridlock and mayhem. Many of these vehicles were far too large for these country lanes they were attempting to negotiate causing damage to properties and parked cars and extremely dangerous for pedestrians especially in the areas of the village that are without pathways. With vehicles mounting the pavements and needing to take up both lanes to make the tight bends.
