s5 Weald Village

Due to some low trees which are breaking windows and causing safety issues to our customers, we have been forced to temporarily divert bus route s5 away from Weald Road, Hubbards Hill and Weald Village.

These sections of road will not be served by the s5 which will temporarily start and finish at The White Hart on Tonbridge Road.

The problem has been raised with KCC who have advised they will attend to the offending trees as soon as possible. Once this is achieved the s5 will revert to its normal scheduled route.

Route 5 is not affected by this alteration and will continue to operate via Weald village as this is operated by a single deck bus.
