FIXMYSTREET IN CT16 3HQ
The following problems have been reported on Fix My Street within 2 miles of CT16 3HQ:
White give way markings, 7th March
Following the recent A2 repairs in the vicinity of the Whitfield roundabout North (Canterbury) bound, there is a slip road crossing the South bound carriageway giving access to Singledge Lane. The resurfacing work covered the dotted give way markings on the slip road which is causing some confusion to local drivers. Since the road is now unmarked, they are assuming it is an unmarked crossing and of the opinion that A2 traffic should give way to them. May I also suggest a cross hatched area to allow crossing when the roundabout is blocked by traffic.

Report on FixMyStreet
Signage obstructed by trees/shrubs on A2 both directions between A256 and A258., 30th May
Some of the signs on both carriageways are barely visible because of overgrown trees and shrubs blocking them. This is a danger as the signs are for direction and safety. Vegetation has been allowed to grow over a long period and not maintained properly. Particularly dangerous as the A2 is a main route to the Port of Dover and is used by many foreign drivers who will be unused to the road and will be missing some safety signs. Requires urgent attention in this busy holiday period.

A2 Road surface between whitfield and jubliee way, 19th May
In my opinion this stretch of road surface is becoming dangerous. There are numerous large potholes, large deep grooves in the surface, the road surface is braking up and there are deep ruts which I believe to be caused by HGVs the deep ruts 'take control of' the steering of vehicles when the wheels are in them, they also become deep puddles when we have heavy rain. The surface itself is shocking and sounds horrendous inside the vehicle, causing it to rattle and vibrate for the duration of this stretch of road. I have just suffered a suspension failure on my vehicle and I am sure the condition of this road which I have to use on a daily basis was a major contribution to this. Also the flooding issue under the flyover is getting worse and in heavy rain it floods across the whole Whitfield bound lane. I think it is unfair to ask people to put up with this for the duration of Whitfield redevelopment program before repairs take place.

Potholes, 27th March
There a numerous potholes along the carriageway towards Dover Port. The lights are also not working, so the holes cannot be easily seen at night. Damage has already occurred to my car - when will something be done about this road - it is an absolute disgrace considering the amount of road tax that people pay.

Dangerous road defect, 17th January
On the left hand London-bound carriageway the side of the road has collapsed and left an extremely dangerous, deep and long trench. It appears that this has been reported many times and despite being a serious risk to road users nothing has been done. Local road users consistently comment on witnessing ‘near-misses’ - this route is heavily used by lorries and large vehicles leaving Dover port. Due to the tracking of such vehicles, their rear wheels often end up in this ditch and risk toppling over. If a caravan, trailer or any other road users vehicle went in this ditch it would be catastrophic. Something needs to be urgently done before there is a fatality.
