Clare Lane Traffic Issues

There have been two accidents recently at the bend at the western end of Clare Lane near Winterfield Lane, increasing our concern regarding the safety of pedestrians as well as vehicle users at this location. Pedestrians trying to get to West Malling station, to the town, or to access the bus stop at Couch Green must walk in the road around a bend where visibility is very poor. Negotiating the junction at Winterfield Lane is particularly difficult.

58 Bus Service - What does the future hold?

KCC have just announced a new pilot bus service between Addington and Tesco Leybourne Way, via Leybourne, West Malling High Street, and East Malling. Consultations will be held with local people, but there are a few things you need to know. Firstly, it looks as though this new route will mean the number 58, which links these villages direct with Maidstone Hospital, will be withdrawn. We know that a withdrawal of the existing service will be of great concern to the people in East Malling who rely on the 58 service to get to hospital appointments or onwards to Maidstone.
