One of the main routes in and out of Canterbury is blocked due to a burst water main.
Drivers are facing delays on the A257 in both directions between Littlebourne and Bramling - while surrounding villagers have been left without water as a result of the incident.
Southern Water was alerted to the issue just before 5.30am and workers are now on site repairing the burst.
The work is ongoing between Bekesbourne Lane and Cherville Lane.
