  I have heard that Alkham Valley and other routes from Folkestone/Hawkinge are affected. Anyone know?

  Cut across to Canterbury and then A2 to Dover Scotchie. Sometimes it's nice to have a bit variety.

  I have just come from Ashford (1815) and through the Alkham Valley with no problem at all. Clear in both directions.

  Sad, but not surprising Howard.
  
  The Folkestone Road was very busy as you can imagine; the Clarendons were coping quite well as a rat-run.
