The culvert in Swanley Village Road, between the junctions with Button Street and Park Lane, been a local problem, with a tendency to be blocked and floodthe surrounding area. It was cleansed in spring 2019, but residents brought to my attention some months ago that it was once more getting blocked. (I had discussed with Kent Highways the best approach to keeping the culvert clean, and it was agreed to do so as and when problems arose).
Tomorrow there will be a road closure while the culvert is cleansed. A civils team will dig out the entrance to the gulley and then the gullies in the area will be cleansed and jetted. The last such operation did give quite a lasting improvement, and hopefully this will do so too.
