Electric Pole Endangers Road at Sellindge

Rotted Pole Snaps at Base

A pole carrying electricity cable snapped at it’s base and threatened to block the A20 in Main Road Sellindge, close to the school this afternoon (Sunday 24 April 2016)

The pole was prevented from falling on the highway by the cable it was holding up.

Electricity men arrived in three vans to sort out the problem and police directed the traffic. The repairs were still taking place at 5pm.
