Litter on slip road verges
Sent to National Highways less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 8658603.
Both sides of the A2 Watling Street exit slip road towards Gravesend C, Wrotham and Services are heavily littered and a complete eyesore. 1 lane is currently closed for roadworks. This would be an ideal opportunity to clear both verges. This has been reported a number of times during the past year but no action appears to have been taken. Please remove it.

Thank you for contacting National Highways about litter near the A2 slip roads for Gravesend.
We have passed your report to our local inspector who will review the issue as part of their litter surveys across our roads in the southeast which commence from Monday 12 January.
Littering by people is, unfortunately, a behaviour that has a big impact on some parts of our roads. We aim to keep our roads as tidy and free of litter as we can. Our litter picking is carefully planned to try to minimise the impact it has on road users and the safety of our people.
Litter picks often require lane or full slip road closures, which are disruptive to traffic flow. To help reduce the frequency of this disruption, where we can, we usually combine our reactive litter picks with other maintenance work which can result in what appears to be a delayed response.
Kind regards
National Highways
