Sustainable transport in the north
On Monday 13 January 2020 we’ll be starting work to improve pedestrian and cycle facilities between Cemetery Road and Station Road in Gillingham.

To keep two-way traffic flow along the busy B3081 Le Neubourg Way, while at the same time providing a safe working zone, the right-turn lanes and hatched space in the middle of the road are being removed to narrow the road to two traffic lanes.
