  So far I've seen no improvement in my accessing Marine Parade. Indeed it has taken longer on a number of occasions.
  
  Coming from Folkestone this afternoon met a car accident at Union Street Junction; blocked access at Union Street to Marine Parade and heavy hgv traffic in nearside lane on Snargate street that prevented turning into York Street unless one joined the hgv queue.
  
  Now getting onto Marine Parade from A20 eastbound means going all the way to Eastern Docks or turning into Woolcomber Street and doing a 'U' turn.
  
  I have long considered that the journey via eastern docks roundabout is potentially hazardous for car drivers wanting to turn onto Marine Parade due to hgv traffic from the Port entering on the nearside. And especially hazardous when one considers the the majority of hgvs are LHD. Although many of these drivers are very considerate and polite letting you slip in to the nearside lane, it is often difficult for them to see you wanting to do so.
  
  Whatever happened to the quoted "improved access to the seafront". Getting to be a not so funny joke on us by DHB and the Highways Agency.
