Traffic delays have now cleared on the A2060 Canterbury Road which was partially blocked due after a car drove into a telegraph pole.

The incident happened around 8.30 am this morning, just outside of Barham Crematorium and near to the A2 Dover Road.

Police attended the scene and motorists were warned to expect delays due to a high volume of traffic in the area which affected both directions.

Nobody was injured.

A Kent Police spokesman said: "We were called to a collision at 8.33am on the A260, Barham.

"A car was in collision with a telegraph pole. No injuries reported.

"Engineers were required to attend to assess the damage to the pole."
