So do you still object to my plan to use freed up A2 capacity for a light rail line from Ebbsfleet to Cuxton, where it would join the Maidstone line (which would also be converted to light rail). Why would it have to be light rail, rather than a real railway? tom Quite. I don't know what the elevations of the lines are round there, but it looks on the OS 1:25k map like it would be rather easy to create a spur between Cuxton and the Chatham line before it goes over the bridge, thus allowing a Gillingham - Paddock Wood service. |
