Description
Kent County Council (the Council) is the largest local authority in England covering an area of 3,500 square kilometres. It has an annual expenditure of over £1bn on goods and services and a population of 1.6m. The Council provides a wide range of personal and strategic services on behalf of its residents, operating in partnership with the NHS Kent and Medway Clinical Commissioning Group, 12 district councils, and 289 parish/town councils. KCC consists of four directorates:
• Adult Social Care and Health;
• Children, Young People and Education;
• Growth, Environment and Transport; and
• Strategic and Corporate Services.
This service is being commissioned on behalf of the Major Capital Programme Team which sits within the Growth, Environment and Transport directorate.
The Key Street and Grovehurst Road junctions are located on the A249, to the north-east of the M2 Junction 5 heading towards the Isle of Sheppey.
Road users currently using either Key Street or Grovehurst Road junctions often experience high volumes of traffic, which results in significant vehicle queues and congestion. The volume of traffic at these junctions is expected to increase as a result of future growth in the surrounding area, which is set out in the local plan. KCC is proposing improvements to the two junctions to reduce the impact of future growth, reduce congestion and address air quality issues.
