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 A249 Bearsted Road scheme is an important infrastructure improvement which aims to
address congestion in Maidstone.
The Bearsted Road scheme involves widening Bearsted Road to provide a 4-lane dual
carriageway and a shared footway/cycleway on the southern side of Bearsted Road between
the crematorium and New Cut Road. The 'Next' roundabout will be signalised, whilst
enlarging and signalising the New Cut (KIMs) roundabout, together with an alternative
access and service roads to the Newnham Court Shopping Village.
