Investigating officer, PC Jamie Woodhams of Kent Police’s Serious Collision Investigation Unit, said: "Although we have several witnesses having seen the woman walking towards Dover, I would urge anyone who was travelling this section of road between Dover and Deal, which was about 700m prior to the junction with Ripple Road, to contact us as soon as possible."

A spokesman for SECAmb confirmed an ambulance was at the scene and assigned an air ambulance to assist which landed near to the incident.
