Increasing the capacity of the road network should not be the only specified solution. The policy needs to include clear statements that rail connectivity through a new station at Hoo (Sharnal Street) and improved public transport connections to the Hoo Peninsula are also required by Medway Council to facilitae growth on the Hoo Peninsula. Every effort should be made to reduce demand for single occupancy private motor vehicle journeys.
