Phase 2 Plan

A2 Bean to Cobham: Phase 2

Phase 2: Pepperhill to Cobham

The need for the scheme

The A2 between Bean and Cobham carries over 110,000 vehicles per day and suffers from considerable congestion, particularly during peak hours. In the future, as traffic flows on the road increase and local regeneration in the Kent Thames-side area of North Kent accelerates, this situation will worsen. The Scheme is designed to alleviate this congestion, improve safety and contribute to an integrated and sustainable transport strategy for the Kent Thames-side area. This would be achieved by improving service levels and journey time reliability and by providing better access to local regeneration areas.
