Build the Lower Thames Crossing

The Lower Thames Crossing is crucial to easing the relentless congestion at the Dartford Crossing, which impacts thousands of residents every day. Recent disruptions across the Dartford Villages, Swanley, Crockenhill, South Darenth and Farningham, have shown just how urgently we need this project to move forward. Too regularly, residents are stuck in gridlock, resulting in missed medical appointments, delayed commutes, and hold-ups for emergency services trying to reach those in need.

A final decision on the Lower Thames Crossing has been further delayed until May 2025. This will only add further strain to our infrastructure and prolong the traffic misery faced by our community.

I am fully committed to ensuring that this vital project is delivered as soon as possible, and that is why I am launching the below petition to demonstrate the strong local support for the Lower Thames Crossing. By adding your name, you can help me send a clear message to the Government that our community deserves urgent and immediate action.

The petition will be open until 20th December when I will then present it to the House of Commons, so please do take part and encourage your friends and family to get involved.
