New Kent lorry park location chosen
Kent County Council have opted to build a lorry park on land next to Stop24 Folkestone Services on the M20 to help with the current lack of parking and offer a suitable location to assist with Operation Stack.
Yesterday at a environment and transport cabinet committee meeting, the council’s transport strategy delivery manager, judged the site to be the top performing out of an original list of over 50 locations throughout Kent.
Long term plans are to have a network of strategically located truck stops and lorry parks to service in excess of 300 parked HGV’s each.
