This was to enable the laying of new track between the platforms of Chartham station from 01.55 on 28/06/15 to 04:30 on 29/06/15. The tops of the machinery being used can be seen to the left of the white vans. If one followed the diversion signs along the A28, one had proceed as far as Shamsford Bridge Image, turn left into Shamsford Street and left again into Bolts Hill, which then took one along Parish Road to The Green. For customers wishing to use the railway, there was a bus-replacement service, along the A28, reached by crossing the railway line by means of the station’s footbridge.
