Ashford Parliamentary Constituency
Now covering the Folkestone & Hythe District Council wards of North Downs East and North Downs West
New boundaries for the 2024 General Election.
About Ashford Constituency
From the 2024 General Election, the Parliamentary Constituency of Ashford will (pretty ridiculously, in our opinion) include the District of Folkestone and Hythe wards of North Downs East and North Downs West, in addtion to the Ashford Borough Council seats of:
Aylesford & East Stour, Beaver, Bircholt, Bockhanger, Bybrook, Conningbrook & Little Burton Farm, Furley, Goat Lees, Godinton, Highfield, Kennington, Mersham, Sevington South with Finberry, Norman, Park Farm North, Park Farm South, Repton, Roman, Singleton East, Singleton West, Stanhope, Victoria, Washford, Willesborough, Wye with Hinxhill.
The Ashford seat therefore stretches pretty much to the coast, across an area that in no way could be called Ashford: Ashford and North Downs, maybe.
Speed watch volunteers needed
The Transport Advisory Group (TAG) of Sandgate Parish Council is looking for local volunteers to help with the speed watch campaign. Sandgate Parish Council now has an agreement to use the speed watch camera bought by Folkestone Town Council. Various members of the council and local residents received training in its use over the summer and are now ready to put it into practice, but more helpers are needed.

20mph through Sandgate Village? Your views wanted.
The Transport Advisory Group (TAG) of Sandgate Parish Council has recently been discussing traffic issues on the A259 through Sandgate Village. In particular there have been concerns about Sandgate Hill at the junction with Coolinge Lane and Radnor Cliff Crescent. The concerns are magnified when parents and children are trying to get to and from school.
