    Gravesham Neighbourhood Forums Joint Meeting

    on the Lower Thames Crossing

     

    Highways England has been consulting on proposals for a new crossing east of London.

     

    The Gravesham Neighbourhood Forums held a joint public debate, at St John’s School in Gravesend on 02 March 2016, about the routes proposed for the Lower Thames Crossing and what they mean for Gravesend and surrounding areas. 

     

    The audience heard directly from Martin Potts, Consultation Manager at Highways England, and from Dr Hilary Newport, Director of CPRE Kent. Members of the audience were able to ask questions and share their views during the meeting.

     

    The meeting was webcast and the recording is now available at https://youtu.be/EZKyJcjYbwU.

     

    Questions submitted in advance by email or during the meeting via Twitter, together with responses from Highways England, Kent County Council and Gravesham Borough Council, have been collated and are available here. 

     

    Please Note:

     

    The joint Forums meeting and the questions raised in person, or via email or Twitter, did not form part of Highways England’s official consultation.  To

    ensure that views were taken into account by Highways England, the formal consultation questionnaire needed to be completed. 

     

    More information is available from Highways England, including the option to sign up for future updates:

    Highways England’s consultation closed on 24 March 2016.
