Park and Ride
A study has been conducted to
understand the need, location and potential use of Park and Ride in
Ashford.
Three Park and Ride schemes are planned
to serve Ashford by 2031, providing around 2,800 parking spaces
linking the town centre, stations and Designer Outlet Centre
by frequent bus services.
The Park and Ride services will anchor the
planned 'SMARTLINK’
Bus Rapid Transit system which will also serve the major
employment and residential growth areas.
The first Park and Ride site is proposed for
the Warren. The Park and Ride Study identified this
site as having the greatest potential use as it is located
close to M20 Junction 9 and the junctions of A20/A28/A251. The
scheme will provide 1,000 new dedicated car parking spaces and will
be served by a frequent bus service.

Ride Study.
