  From bbc travel web page:
  
  A20 Kent - Queueing traffic on A20 Townwall Street in both directions in Dover between the A256 Woolcomber Street junction and York Street Roundabout. In the roadworks area.
  
  
  This might be having a knock on effect although does seem a little way away from Samphire Hoe.

  I read one report of debris in the road causing the hold up.

  Veolia were outside the Light of India/Burlington House, working with one lane closed off. Same for the bottom of York Street - caused havoc all the time it was there.
