Plans to ease the congestion around Anthony Roper Prinary School in Eynsford include proposals - which I would pay for from my Member Fund - to extend the yellow lines in the village and to create bays in the road outside Fernbank. These plans have been on the stocks for a long time, and I had hoped that by now we would have been out to consultation.
However, initial surveys threw up a potential problem of BT services being under the pavement; most critically, there might be a cable there. The cost of moving this could be prohibitive, raising questions about the whole scheme, at least in its current form.
Kent Highways (with BT representatives present) will drill some trial holes to test for what is under the pavement. These works will take place next Sunday, 7 June. Residents have been notified. Hopefully we should know soon if it is possible for the scheme to proceed.
