SENT ON BEHALF OF NATIONAL HIGHWAYS- LOWER THAMES CROSSING

This March we’re holding nine community drop-in events close to the Lower Thames Crossing route and the Dartford Crossing, where local residents can learn more about our plans for the year ahead and what to expect in their area.

Our construction teams will be available to talk about:

  • Our plans, including surveys, ground investigations, archaeology, and the diversion of utilities
  • Locations of our work compounds and sites, including vehicle access routes and working hours

At two event locations we'll also bring our new 3D model of the route to give a clearer idea of what the final road will look like.

We hope to see you at one of the following locations:
