Windmill Hill will be closed for 4 days from Monday the 20th of July for work to patch the road and repaint the white lines. This can only be done under closure.
Otterham Quay Lane will be closed between the junctions with Lower Rainham Road and Horsham Lane, with no through access during closures.
Due to the nature of these works, it is unlikely the road can be re-opened outside the working hours, except on the evening of Tuesday 21st July when the road will be re-opened due to the overnight closure of nearby Breach Lane.
Access to Beckenham Park will be maintained from one or other direction, as signposted on site.
All other access will be maintained whenever it is safe to do so, but there are likely to be some delays and certain times when this is not possible, for safety reasons.
These works are weather dependent, and if adverse conditions prevent them going ahead on the planned dates shown, revised dates will be notified and signposted on site.
The alternative route is via Otterham Quay Lane, A2 London Road, Oak Lane and
Horsham Lane.
Once Chalkwell are made aware of the exact times and location of the closure they will put notices out on their vehicles to advise their customers.
It's likely they will get to the Three Sisters Public House from Rainham then travel up Otterham Quay Lane and into Upchurch via Oak Lane then continue the route as normal, with the same working in reverse.
We are still waiting to hear back from Travelmasters regarding changes to the School Bus service during the closure.
