Crash Chaos on Pin Hill

A section of the A28 Pin Hill in Canterbury is closed after a lorry careered into the central reservation near Canterbury East railway station. The smash caused metal railings to buckle and sent debris flying into a passing car.

Emergency services raced to the scene just before 4:18 PM today. A police spokesperson said:

“Officers attended the scene where a car had also been struck by debris from the collision. The car driver reported a minor injury, and a lane is closed while arrangements are underway to recover the lorry.”
