  If there are delays at the Port of Dover we can recommend the following alternative routes to the castle that are not impacted by the delays:

  • The M2/A2 corridor
  • The A299 towards Ramsgate and then following the A256 to Dover.
  • For those who need to use the M20/A20 we recommend coming off at Alkham Valley and using Alkham Valley Road or coming off at Capel and use old Folkestone Road B2011.
