A MAN and woman in their 30s have died following a devastating head-on collision involving a motorcycle.
Police have now released a new image as they step up their appeal for witnesses.
The pair were riding a black Triumph motorcycle when the crash happened.
Both were pronounced dead at the scene despite emergency services attending.
Their next of kin have been informed.
The incident occurred on the evening of December 20 at around 6.40pm on the A228 Pembury Northern Bypass, close to the junction for Old Church Road.
The motorcycle and a light-coloured Jaguar car were both travelling towards Tunbridge Wells.
They collided with a silver Ford van heading in the opposite direction.
Officers from the Serious Collision Investigation Unit are leading the enquiries.
They particularly want to speak to the occupants of a blue Ford Fiesta that stopped at the Esso petrol station on the junction of the Pembury Bypass at about 6.41pm.
Police believe these people may have witnessed the immediate aftermath.
Drivers are being urged to check dashcam footage from the moments before the collision.
Anyone with information should contact Kent Police on 01622 798538, quoting reference EW/DCG/090/25, or email [email protected]. Footage can also be uploaded online.
The road was closed for investigation work but has now reopened.

Police said Tom was in a vulnerable state of mind at the time.
On Christmas Day, a member of the public discovered a man’s body in woodland off Lees Lane in Dalton, near Wigan.
Although formal identification is still to take place, officers believe it to be Tom.
His family have been informed and are being supported by specially trained officers.
The death is not being treated as suspicious, and a file is being prepared for the coroner.
Lancashire Police thanked the public for sharing appeals during the search, which involved specialist teams including drones and mountain rescue.
