New Romney Town Council invites local residents to a drop-in session to discuss current proposals and future priorities within the Parish Highway Improvement Plan (PHIP).
The PHIP has been developed in partnership with Kent County Council and Folkestone and Hythe District Council to identify and address road safety issues across New Romney, Littlestone and Greatstone.
Saturday 21 November 2026
10:00 a.m. to 12:00 noon
The Assembly Rooms, Church Approach, New Romney
The session will provide an opportunity to:
Meet and speak directly with Town Councillors about the Parish Highway Improvement Plan and how priorities are identified.
- Receive an update on progress towards proposed 20 mph zones and discuss next steps.
- Discuss proposals relating to Dymchurch Road, including:
- Extending the existing 40 mph speed limit eastwards beyond the railway bridge.
- Reviewing and improving the width and suitability of the footway between New Romney and St Mary's Bay, including pedestrian access to The Nest.
- Raise any other highway, traffic, road safety or pedestrian concerns that you feel should be considered as part of future PHIP priorities.
This is an informal engagement exercise designed to gather local views and help shape future discussions between New Romney Town Council, Kent County Council and Folkestone and Hythe District Council.
