A collapsed manhole cover is causing delays. Part of the A21 is coned off between the B2160 Maidstone Road and the A262 Forstal Farm Roundabout in Lamberhurst after the hole appeared on the southbound side. This means traffic travelling in both directions is being affected. National Highways has posted on X about the incident and says “service providers” are in attendance and there is a reduced capacity on the route. It is not known how long the emergency repairs may take. Listen to kmfm for traffic updates. More as we get it.
