Unsustainable and Dangerous!

The turn-off onto the A20 at Junction 8 of the M20 has been made confusing and dangerous. The A20 is awash with mostly foreign HGV vehicles trying to dodge the M20 carpark! This is causing damage to an already overused road which, no doubt, the local taxpayer will have to cough up funds to repair. There has been absolutely no communication between local authorities and the people in charge of Operation Brock. This is illustrated by the sheer madness of starting roadworks in Charing on the A20 cut- through. These roadworks started at the exact time when traffic was bound to be its worst during school summer holidays. And, if like me, you want to cross the A20 near Lenham to get up to the North Downs to walk, you are taking your life into your own hands (literally). The speed limit is meant to be 50 but there are too few signs saying this and, as a result, traffic thunders along the road here at terrifying speeds. There should be a speed limit of 40 or 30 as there is in Harrietsham. And there should be police enforcement of some kind, both ticketing HGV users who illegally use the road, and ticketing people who speed. The road simply won't continue to withstand the pressure it is under and people will be killed. And don't even get me started on the ridiculous plan to build 5000 new homes in Lenham (NOT Lenham Heath. Let's be realistic and be clear about where these houses are planned for). To be honest, at the moment, I may as well buy a house on the M20. It would be safer and quieter!! THIS CANNOT GO ON!!!
