VECTOR average speed cameras have been installed on the A28 (Canterbury Road) northbound and southbound on the short stretch of dual carriageway between junction with A299 (Thanet Way) and Brooksend where the dual carriageway narrows into a single carriageway. It's 50mph through there but a look of people obviously travel a lot quicker.
