Two injured after crane and lorry smash
A road was closed for nearly eight hours yesterday after a crane
and lorry collided.
The Thanet Way between Herne Bay and Whitstable was shut from
shortly before 4.15pm.
Two people were injured and taken to hospital following the
crash, which happened on the London-bound carriageway.
The crane appeared to have run into the back of the lorry and
police closed the road at the Herne Bay exit and diverted
traffic via the old Thanet Way.
The two casualties were taken to hospital by ambulance, but were
not thought to be seriously hurt.
It took several hours to recover the damaged vehicles and clear
the highway and the road was not fully re-opened until just
after midnight.
