Following years of discussion and negotiations between Hollingbourne Parish Council, the KCC member for Maidstone Rural East, Shellina Prendergast, and KCC Highways engineers, KCC have today agreed to fund a 20mph scheme in the area of Hollingbourne Primary School between the railway Bridge and Greenway Court Road. This is excellent news for the residents of Hollingbourne and is the result of a great deal of hard work. A recent traffic survey carried out by KCC in combination with a similar survey funded by Hollingbourne Parish Council in 2019 have been decisive in persuading KCC to fund this scheme.
The first course of action is to apply for a Traffic Regulation Order for the 20 mph speed limit and further details of the scheme will be made public in due course.
