The chosen route for the proposed Lower Thames Crossing may not achieve its main purpose of relieving congestion at Dartford. The methodology for assessing the public’s response to the various proposals has been flawed. The development will be disadvantageous to the people of Chalk, and large parts of Gravesend and Shorne, in that the environment (including wildlife) will be significantly negatively impacted, both in the construction and when in use. The mitigations offered are insufficient.
