Major Road Blocked After Car Transporter Overturns

A key route is shut for hours after a car transporter flips over, causing chaos for drivers.

What’s Happening?

Westbound traffic on the A259 is at a standstill due to the overturned vehicle. Authorities warn the closure will last several hours while the scene is cleared.

Follow the Diversion: Avoid the Jam

Drivers heading westbound must follow solid triangle road signs to get around the blockage.

  • From the A2070 Brenzett roundabout, traffic will divert onto the A259 towards New Romney.
  • At the A259 and B2075 junction (Romney Road), turn right onto the B2075 towards Lydd.
  • Travel through Lydd via Harden Road, Robin Hood Lane, and Tourney Road.
  • Exit Lydd onto Jury’s Gap Road and head to Camber.
  • Pass through Camber on Lydd Road, which joins Camber Road when leaving town.
  • Follow Camber Road back to the A259 at East Guldeford to continue your journey.

Eastbound Traffic

The eastbound diversion runs the reverse route. Look for road signs with hollow diamond symbols and follow them carefully.

Drivers are urged to plan ahead, expect delays, and drive safely around the diversion.
