Winterfield Lane Closure Plans Cancelled
KCC had authorised the closure of Winterfield Lane from 20th June until October for highway improvement works related to the Forty Acres development.
Following appeals to KCC to reconsider the decision on account of the severe disruption and inconvenience this would cause, it has been agreed that the closure will now only be during nights later on in the programme.
The works will now be carried out by reducing the A20 at Winterfield Lane/Lunsford Lane junctions to one lane and there will be temporary 3 way lights at the top end of Winterfield Lane where it meets Chapman Way.
