UPDATE: Tuesday 24th December - Notification of Major Gas Works: A2 - High Street, Newington

Following the postponement of our work in November, we’ll be returning to London Road, Newington on Monday 6th January to continue upgrading our gas network.

In close consultation with Kent County Council from Monday 6th January, we'll be working to the east of Newington Industrial Estate, between properties 97 and 111 London Road. For everyone’s safety around our site, we’ll need to install temporary two-way traffic lights for approximately two weeks.

To guarantee gas supplies to properties in the area, we need to revise our programme of works, especially as we have entered the winter period where the gas demand increases. From Monday 20th January 2020, we'll be upgrading our network in the A2, working in Keycol Hill by Rook Lane, Sittingbourne. For everyone’s continued safety, temporary two-way traffic lights will be in place around our work area for approximately six weeks.

We have further work to carry out along the A2, Newington. We’re continuing to plan this and our revised programme of works with the local authority. We will share all the information with you once details have been confirmed.

We appreciate your understanding and patience while we carry out essential gas mains replacement work in the area.

If you have any further questions, please let me know.

Kind regards

Swale Borough Council - More Than 50 Per cent Cut to Long Stay Parking Prices at New Multi-storey Car Park


People can now park all day at Bourne Place multi-storey car park in Sittingbourne for just £7.

Swale Borough Council has reduced the cost of parking for more than 6 hours to £7 from the £15 to provide more long stay car parking needed around the station and town centre.

Cllr Tim Valentine, cabinet member for environment at the council, said:

“We’re pleased to offer more long stay car parking spaces at the Bourne Place multi-storey car park for locals and visitors in Sittingbourne.

The more than 50 per cent reduction will open up 308 spaces at the new car park.

We know that more long stay parking is needed near the station and around the town centre, so we decided to amend the long stay charge to provide the space that users need.

The multi-storey car park offers secure and well-lit parking between 8am and 7pm every day, giving users peace of mind during the darker winter mornings and evenings. It also benefits from CCTV cameras throughout the building for extra reassurance.

The car park will be open 24-hours a day when the Travelodge hotel opens which will make it even easier for commuters to park.”

The car park will be closed on Christmas day, Boxing day and the New Years day, opening the usual times on all other days.
