Overnight van has parked in the channel tunnel slip lane for over 1 month - lorries will come and go over night also when clearly sign marked with no overnight parking. happens all the way along A20 to stop 24 *not a huge problem but they all are leaving regular litter and human waste bottles/bags. The White Van must be living here.

  • No the same vehicle is now living in another lay-by near the Tesco M20 cheriton roundabout on the A20, you’d imagine near the Channel Tunnel police building they might think to do something ?

  • No the vehicle has now moved to a layby on the A20 nearer junction 12, supposed to be no overnight parking and driven past by police for channel tunnel daily - living in van and littering

  • Now parked in lay-by near channel tunnel staff entrance and police station being used to live or camp in which I thought was illegal

  • Moved and parked again in another A20 lay-by It’s laughable

  • Now Parked under channel tunnel bridge and surely a dangerous threat if this is being lived in with gas canisters and heating equipment

  • Still living in van and parking in various lay-bys Alison A20 from cheriton to Hythe junction.

    I thought overnight camping or motor home stopping by in lay-bys was illegal
