Supplementary Consultation Deposit and Information Locations

Highways England have announced the Deposit and Information Locations for the Lower Thames Crossing Supplementary Consultation which will run from Weds 29th Jan 2020 through to Weds 25th March 2020.

Due to the Coronavirus Highways England have today (March 19th 2020) announced that the consultation will be extended by 1 week and will now end at 23:59 on Thursday 2nd April 2020.  More details of this can be found on their website – https://highwaysengland.co.uk/lower-thames-crossing-supplementary-consultation-extended.

23/03/20 Update – As per the Prime Minister’s announcement all libraries are now closed until further notice.

21/03/20 Update – HE are still stating that deposit locations and information points are still open. However, when we checked info for the locations online on 21/03/20 we found that all Kent, Essex, Havering libraries were closed until further notice.

18 locations in total – 10 of those currently closed, leaving 8 locations currently open for the time being, with 6 (Thurrock) of those only opening for limited hours. So all Kent, Essex, and Havering libraries closed, Thurrock libraries open limited hours.

Have your say

If you feel the consultation should be postponed until after the Coronavirus crisis has passed, and HE should not be encouraging us to visit deposit locations and info points at this time, please be sure to comment and give your opinions on this in your consultation responses.  We deserve a fair and adequate consultation, and HE are legally obliged to provide us with clear and informative materials and an adequate consultation.  Surely we should also be taking Government guidelines into account and staying at home, social distancing, and not travelling unless essential, and if we are doing that we should not be attending these locations, so how can we adequately take part in the consultation, it should be postponed. Now that all libraries have now very rightly been closed as per the PMs announcement on 23rd March we no longer have access to consultation materials, how can this be considered an acceptable consultation?
