A road was closed and bus journeys were delayed after a crash involving three vehicles near a busy town centre.

Police shut parts of King Street in Maidstone at the junction with Wat Tyler Way following the incident just before 1.30pm.

Officers attended the scene and arrangements were made to recover the vehicles.

Nobody was injured but it did have a knock-on effect on bus services in the town with Stagecoach having to amend journeys.

The bus operator posted on X saying: “Due to an RTC in King Street, Maidstone, the 10X will only serve as far as Haynes Garage.

“The X3 will only serve as far as Albion Place.

“Police have said the road is due to remain closed until approximately 15:00 - will update shortly.”

All services are not back to normal.
