Sound decisions need to be made and these need to be seen through. It is obvious that shopping methods have significantly changed. This has left high streets (particularly Chatham & Gillingham) a complete eyesore and not fit for purpose. It will need compulsory purchases and bold decision making to get this right, but it is obvious we do not need the full lengths of these 2 town centres. People joke about visiting them and most don't bother. Areas, such as the stretch opposite Gillingham Library need revamping (several of the buildings here have been derelict for decades)
