It will be necessary to close part of Lower Rainham Road, Upchurch from Monday 6th February 2017 with estimated completion by 26th February 2017.
Lower Rainham Road will be closed at the eastern end, in the vicinity of the roundabout junction with Otterham Quay Lane.
Access to the remainder of Lower Rainham Road continues from the Rainham direction up to where the road is closed, but there will be no through access.
The alternative route for through traffic is via Lower Rainham Road, Station Road, A2 High Street (Rainham) and Otterham Quay Lane.
The closures will be followed by temporary traffic lights once the road has re-opened.
The closure is to enable works to provide a new sewer connection to be carried out by Mostrim Groundworks.
Due to the nature of these works, it will not be possible to re-open the road outside the working hours.
Some delays are to be expected, especially at busier times, so it is recommended that motorists allow extra time for their journeys or consider using alternative routes during these works.
It is possible that the works may over-run for such reasons as adverse weather conditions or unforeseen engineering difficulties.
The Kent County Council Highway Helpline phone number is: 03000 418181.
