Water bosses have announced plans to replace 1.8km of pipes which have burst 32 times.

South East Water revealed it is going to take out the old water main along Pond Farm Road, from the junction with Cryalls Lane, and Wises Lane, to the junction with Sutton Baron Road in Borden.

People have suffered no water or low pressure due to the pipe bursting.

It means a road closure and temporary traffic lights will be brought in.
