Highways England are supporting the uptake of electric vehicles by working to ensure that 95 per cent of the strategic road network will have a chargepoint every 20 miles.<\/p>

Highways England have also been exploring and testing a range of measures and innovative products as part of their programme of air quality research. They have evidence that tall barriers can reduce concentrations of NO2 for the residents closest nearby, and they are progressing with work to see how these could be installed on the network.

The noise levels on this section of the M20 have been assessed as part of DEFRA\u2019s Noise Action Plan. This identified 10 areas between M20 Junction 8-9 which required investigation because of the level of noise.<\/p>

Action has been taken to mitigate noise at five out of the 10 areas with the installation of noise insulation. Highways England are working to address the remaining five areas, including trials to test options to reduce the noise generated by concrete road surfaces.<\/p>
