FOOTPATHS

The Crowhill to Maidstone Rd footpath has recently been resurfaced, which will now allow the elderly, disabled, and young mums with pushchairs a safe shortcut to the village. This is a triumph of co-operation between Kent Highway Services, Russet Homes, Our KCC Member Valerie Dagger and local residents who have all made contributions to the project. What has always prevented repairs in the past was uncertainty of ownership. This partnership approach has got around the problem to everybody's benefit .

Kent Highways Public Rights of Way were so pleased with all the help they received from local residents on the Crowhill path that they pledged to resurface the Rock Road to Staleys footpath as soon as funds were available, and on the 18th March it was done, and a lovely job too!!! PROW are now looking at the possibility of resurfacing the Tilton Rd to Sevenoaks Rd footpath within the next year.
