A traffic control system is back in place on the A20 into Dover this morning.

Kent County Council's highways department says that Dover TAP (Traffic Access Protocol) is being implemented at Aycliffe due to heavy freight volumes.

This is to prevent port-bound traffic, including lorries, from disrupting the local road network and the A20 through the town.
