Drivers faced delays throughout yesterday, after a lorry hit a railway bridge.

The HGV became wedged in Gun Lane, Strood, prompting police to close the road while engineers assessed the damage.

The lorry was freed and taken away by a crane yesterday evening, and the road has since re-opened.

The crash caused problems on trains travelling between Rochester and Sole Street yesterday morning.

Leaves on the tracks also caused disruption to services elsewhere in the county.

Southeastern apologised to commuters for delays due to "poor rail conditions" caused by leaves making the tracks too slippery.

Some services were cancelled and delayed, causing overcrowding on trains.
