Rejected petition Get the promised Sittingbourne Northern Relief road built and linked to the M2
Help the long suffering residents and businesses of Swale who have and are enduring increasingly horrific traffic congestion in and around the Sittingbourne area by getting the Northern part of the relief road connected to the already constructed Southern relief road and connected to the M2 Motorway
More details
Gain funding and land acquisition for these vital infrastructure works and not rely on private developers to donthis work as long as they get to build thousands of new homes only adding to the existing congestion issues.
Build a road which is free flowing and effective at getting the high levels of heavy goods vehicles operating out of Sittingbourne and the Isle of Sheppy onto the motorway network to help local businesses operate more effectively and reduce environmental impact from being constantly stuck in traffic.
