Road closures in Swanley Village and Crockenhill

Beechenlea Lane between Swanley and Swanley Village is set for an extended closure of 42 days, from 13 September to 24 October. This is for Network Rail to replace the current rail bridge with a new concrete structure. 

There have already been two shorter road closures related to these works. The first was on 2-3 August, while the second on 24 August was for installation of the required plant. 

The proposed diversion route is via Swanley Village Road, Swanley Lane and High Street/ London Road.

In Crockenhill, Wested Lane will be closed for five days (17 - 21 September inclusive) for Network Rail to undertake works stabilising the cutting near the railway bridge. The closure will be in working hours (0600 to 1800) only. The suggested diversion route is via Crockenhill village, Green Court Road/ Goldsel Road and through Swanley.
