Our reporter at the scene said: "The bomb squad turned up and spoke to the people outside the station before putting their sirens on and driving down Gas House Road and on to Rochester Riverside development.
"At least two army personnel are in attendance."
A Second World War bomb was discovered near the station in April last year.
