Temporary Road Closure - Otterham Quay Lane

It will be necessary to close part of Otterham Quay Lane, Upchurch (Swale) from Monday 12th May 2014 for up to 3 weeks. 

Otterham Quay Lane will be closed from the junction with Wallbridge Lane to the entrance to the Caravan Park. 

The alternative route is via Otterham Quay Lane, A2 Moor Street, London Road, Oak Lane and Wallbridge Lane.

The closure is to enable Kent County Council to safely carry out drainage and carriageway repairs and improvements. These are the works that had to be delayed at the end of last year, following the emergency closure of Oak Lane.

Due to the nature of these works, it will not be possible to re-open the road outside the working hours.

These works are weather dependent, and adverse weather may affect how quickly they can be completed.

The Kent County Council Highway Helpline phone number is:

03000 418181 - Ask for Drainage Team.
