The road runs alongside the River Lud, and is often subject to flooding, which I believe this work should alleviate. It has been on-going now for 6 months, and another 6 months to go, with the road blocked and a diversion necessary up Newbridge Hill, where the ABM Malt Kiln is being demolished - also requiring road closures. Meanwhile residents of Ramsgate Road have at times not been able to get their cars into their drives, though they say the workmen have been as helpful as possible. See also: Image
