LOWER THAMES CROSSING
Statement made on 9 March 2023
To date we have spent over £800m on planning the Lower Thames Crossing. It is one of the largest planning applications ever, and it is important we get this right. We remain committed to the Lower Thames Crossing, and the Development Consent Order process will be an important opportunity to consult further to ensure there is an effective and deliverable plan. In order to allow time for this process, and given wider pressures on RIS, we will look to rephase construction by 2 years.
On 28 November 2022 the Planning Inspectorate confirmed it had accepted
National Highway’s application for a Development Consent Order.
The project received almost 95,000 consultation responses. A rigorous examination of the proposals by a panel of independent, government-appointed
experts, is in progress. The examination, including public hearings, is likely to take around 6
months. .

In recognition of the end of the 1914-1918 World War and with a grant from
KCC, the Parish Council purchased and arranged installation of a Memorial
to all those from Bean who lost their lives in the service of their country.
The stone is on the triangle of land between High Street and Shellbank Lane.
A short service of dedication took place at 2 pm on Sunday 11th November 2018, conducted by Rev. Josh Young from St. Nicholas Southfleet.
Lest We Forget - 1914-1918 World War. The men of Bean answered the call
to defend their country in the First World War.
Most of them were farm labourers.
This LINK is to a brief description about the men who did not return, or,
as in one case, died a few years later as a result of being gassed in the war. [Research by JC]
