TRANSPORT issues driving residents mad will be discussed at a conference.

Sevenoaks District Council will be hosting its first-ever event on transport issues in Swanley.

The conference will explore current and future travel issues and ways to encourage more people to use sustainable forms of transport.

Topics such as tackling traffic congestion and encouraging people to use public transport will be discussed.

Issues which arise at the conference will go towards developing the council's new transport strategy.

Community groups and residents are invited to attend the meeting at the Woodlands Centre, Woodlands Rise, Swanley, on September 20 from 9.30am to 4.15pm.
