Drivers and rail passengers are facing delays due to adverse weather which is causing obstructions and flooding across the county.

Weather warnings have been in place across Kent over the weekend, with snow, ice and heavy rain all making their mark in the area.

Such warnings were in place until 9am today with the Met Office warning up to 40mm of rain could come down in parts of the county.

The impact of the weather has caused chaos on Kent’s travel network with many roads being left flooded or blocked by fallen trees.

Southeastern trains are unable to run between Ashford and Dover after a tree was reported on the railway near Westenhanger.

Meanwhile, on the roads, the B2068 Stone Street in Lyminge was blocked in both directions due to a fallen tree between Horton Downs (Farthing Common) and Woodland Road (Roundwood Hall Golf Club) but has now reopened.

The B2024 Croydon Road is closed heading into Westerham because of flooding from Farley Lane to The Paddock, though traffic is able to pass the other way.

Clinton Lane in Bough Beech near Tonbridge is closed in both directions due to flooding between Ide Hill Road and How Green Lane.

Alkham Road in Ewell Minnis near Dover is partially blocked both ways thanks to a fallen tree between Wolverton Hill and Kearsney, which is causing delays.

Meanwhile, near Little Venice Country Park, the River Medway has burst its banks.

The village sits at the point where the River Teise and River Beult join the River Medway.

The Environment Agency latest update at just after 11.30am said the river's water level was at 4.04 metres, which means property flooding is possible.

Photos and videos show the extent of the flooding, with one showing a car submerged in water.

Further afield, one lane is closed on the M25 clockwise with slow traffic and a speed restriction of 40 mph due to flooding near J8 A217 Brighton Road (Reigate). Congestion is said to be back to J6 Godstone, past the M23.

The Met Office is advising people to check road conditions if driving, or bus and train timetables.

A spokesperson said: “People cope better with power cuts when they have prepared for them in advance. It’s easy to do; consider gathering torches and batteries, a mobile phone power pack and other essential items.

“Be prepared for weather warnings to change quickly: when a weather warning is issued, the Met Office recommends staying up to date with the weather forecast in your area.

“Check if your property could be at risk of flooding. If so, consider preparing a flood plan and an emergency flood kit.”
