Westwell Lane will be closed for one day on Friday, 20th March whilst Kent County Council carries out essential carriageway patching works.
Kent County Council has scheduled carriageway patching works on Westwell Lane in Westwell for Friday, 20th March 2026. The road closure is necessary to allow operatives to safely carry out the patching repairs to the carriageway surface. Residents and commuters should plan alternative routes in advance, as this is a key local access road in the Ashford area.
The closure will be in place for the duration of the works on that day. Drivers heading through Westwell should expect disruption and should allow extra time for their journeys. For those travelling between surrounding villages and the Ashford area, alternative routes via neighbouring roads will be available, though these may experience increased traffic during the works.
Pedestrian access will be maintained throughout the works, so local residents will still be able to access properties on foot. The timing of these works has been carefully planned to minimise disruption, though some delays are inevitable. If you have concerns about accessing your property or business during this closure, you may wish to make alternative arrangements where possible.
