A 24-hour lorry park is expected to be in operation at Ebbsfleet International station in 85 days’ time, it has emerged.
HMRC – which deals with custom checks – and the Department for Transport have unveiled proposals to hold up to 256 lorries in car park D of the railway land, which lies between Dartford and Gravesend.
The government says the Brexit lorry site will be needed for up to two years from 1 January, after the European Union (EU) transition period ends at the end of 2020 if a deal has not been reached.

About 143 staff are likely to be hired at the station, which will operate for seven days a week. The site will be made Covid-secure with hand santisiers provided and social distancing taken into account.
Between the hours of 23:00 and 07:00, lorry movement will be limited to a maximum of 99 per hour at the former Covid testing site, which shut down unannounced last month and moved to Rochester.
Plans have been made to manage traffic travelling from different parts of the UK into Kent and the Local Democracy Reporting Service understands the customs checkpoint will be used as a “net” to catch lorries heading to Europe.
Hauliers will be encouraged to upload their paperwork online before they travel from their depot, and will then be given a green, amber or red pass to show whether they can progress onto the Port of Dover and Eurotunnel.
Dartford council’s main opposition leader Sacha Gosine (Lab) said he was “worried” about the plans. He said: “I have previously talked about the traffic issues in Dartford. It will be mayhem as the infrastructure on these roads cannot cope with these lorries.”
However, Dartford council’s leader Jeremy Kite (Con) said he “sympathised” with HMRC and added: “If they don’t plan for a worst case situation they would face criticism but when they do, it obviously focuses upon a preparation that we all hope won’t be needed.”
