Motorists are being advised of a series of road closures taking place to improve the surface of two busy roads in the Maidstone area.

Replacement and resurfacing work to the M20 will be completed during overnight closures starting this weekend.

The Londonbound link road between junctions 7 and 6 will be shut overnight for six nights from Sunday to allow for the work to be carried out.

The work will be carried out between 8pm and 6am, and drivers wishing to exit at junction 5 or 6 will be diverted via junction 4.

Meanwhile the A21 carriageway will be closed in both directions between Pembury and Vauxhall Interchange, from 8pm to 6am Monday to Thursday.

Signed diversions will be in place via the A26, B2017 and A228 while resurfacing works take place.
