Southeastern is running a winter weather timetable as ice is causing rails to freeze.

There may not be direct trains on some routes, and you can check your journey here.

Maidstone and Tunbridge Wells NHS Trusts said people should still take care despite the lack of snow.

A spokesman said: "Kent has escaped significant snow overnight - ice still a hazard.

If you are travelling west the Met Office has an amber warning for heavy snow out for areas west of Crawley through to Oxford and Reading including parts of the M25."

The best of the snowfall appears to have happened in hilly areas, particularly along the North Downs.

There has also been snow which has settled in parts of Medway.

Yet many areas like Gravesend experienced snowfall but nothing settled due to the wet conditions.

Cold temperatures are expected to remain in place over the weekend, with Medway Council issuing its emergency protocol to protect homeless people.
