| "Traffic? What Traffic?" |
|||
On St. Mary's Island, the car is definitely not king - 20 acres is dedicated to open space. A network of traffic calmed roads, footpaths and cycleways give priority to cyclists and walkers, with most of the walkways designed to take people through the many green spaces.
![]() Home zones have been created, providing an alternative traffic calming method to speed bumps. These include raised flowerbeds, hedges and other street furniture, which will reduce local traffic speeds to below 20mph. To encourage the use of bicycles, secure storage facilities have been incorporated into every apartment block and houses given extra length garages to provide space for both bicycles and cars. The result is a quieter, cleaner and far more relaxed atmosphere on the whole island. It is this kind of attention to detail that makes St. Mary's Island such a special place to live. |
![]() St.Mary's Island is also directly connected to Rochester and Strood and the Dockside Designer Outlet Village provides a direct bus service to Gillingham. For further details visit the Arriva website at www.arriva.co.uk. |
