Update, January 2019: When this report was written in August 2017, we did not think that Highways England (HE) might already have approved the layout of the contra-flow system. At that time we hoped this dangerous plan would be rejected by HE. Having carefully reviewed documents made available since, we now believe the layout was probably signed off by HE and/or Kent County Council’s Planning and Highways Department in the autumn of 2017. Please read all references to HE with this in mind. For details of the documents and timeline, see Part 3 of our December 2018 report to the Department for Transport on the page “Contra-flow on the A2 north-bound exit”.
