Eastern Approach to Sittingbourne
The A2 Canterbury Road on the eastern edge of Sittingbourne as it heads up Fox Hill. The road is based upon the Roman Watling Street and is very straight which tempts drivers to speed violations. The 30mph limit has been extended eastwards and a speed camera installed.
