Flytipping issue, 7th May

Sun, 07 May 2023 14:26:16 +0100
51.276937 0.590727

Further to my report in March and your reply on 20th March in which you indicated that the flytipping would be investigated and cleared up. I can confirm that this has not happened and is encouraging further littering. It is a blight on the countryside and I am concerned that it will encourage a further flytipping incident. It is NOT currently obscurung the bridleway & KCC are therefore not involved

Messaging at Jn8 Brock Confusing, 22nd July

Fri, 22 Jul 2022 09:26:17 +0100
51.268909 0.60719

Hello - Over the past week I have seen more and more Lorries coming off at Jn 8 and then either stopping or continuing along the A20 because I think the message on the alert board is misleading. It says for HGV to stay left after Jn8 but I see lorries immediately move into that lane and then be forced to exit at Jn8 Services. Since they are unable to return to the motorway at Jn8 they then travel along the A20 to Jn9. I think you should consider the alert board message and general signs directing traffic at the start of the brock contraflow to make it easy to navigate. Thank you.
