You have planted whips in alongside your new junction in grass, 24th March

Sun, 24 Mar 2024 22:49:11 +0000
51.32775 0.666621

If you look at the welcome page of my website www.ivydenegardens.co.uk, you will see that planting trees or any other vegetation in grass, that they will not survive because the grass takes all the rain and any nutrients you put on top and the dry ground leaves no water for the trees. why do all roadworks, local authorities continue to waste money in planting trees this way. do you not recognise that plants need water? You have probably planted these trees within the last month

Litter on A249 and M2, 29th February

Thu, 29 Feb 2024 04:54:23 +0000
51.327518 0.668778

I have travelled on these roads for the past 42-years and I have never seen the litter situation as bad as it is now. It gets worse week after week. ITS NOW A DISGRACE! There is even plastic wrap “growing” in the trees now and hundreds of clear plastic drinking bottles that appear to be filled with urine! Is there an actual plan to clear up Kent and if so what is it and when is it going to start. Day after day I sit in traffic jams on the A249, M2 or one of the roads off the A249 into Sittingbourne, during the current roadworks and road closures why are you not taking the opportunity to clear the litter and keep it clear!

There are quite a few potholes now and you are having to swerve to avoid damaging your car., 22nd July

It has been reported but nothing seems to have changed. I could not take a picture as I am in my car and it would not be safe to do so. Maybe one of your staff can have a look for you and recommend some repairs to be carried out. The motorist does pay road tax and maybe it should be spent on repairing the roads.
