Bower Lane potholes

I have to declare an interest on this one, since I am a fairly frequent user of Bower Lane, but the potholes in the road are a significant problem for local residents, and have been for a while. There are a number of concentrations of problems, especially towards the East Hill end of the road.

Speaking to Kent Highways officers today, I understand that works will be carried out to tackle the problem as part of the spring assault on potholes. It is likely to be a quite costly and demanding job, with some need for a road closure. This work will have to wait for better weather and the best timing for a closure, so in the interim we are likely to see some patching as a very short-term fix. Good news nonetheless.
