Delays on a major road have now cleared after a multi-vehicle crash.

It happened about 8.30am between the B2097 Rochester Road, near the Lord Lees roundabout, to the Eccles turnoff in Chatham.

The roundabout also connects motorists to London and Canterbury via the M2.

“Officers attended the scene where no injuries were reported and arrangements were made to recover the vehicles.”
