It is alleged that she and others had planned a protest on the overhead gantry, and that obstructed the public in the exercise of a right.
The case was sent to the crown court, and Gethin was released on bail with conditions to abide by an electronically monitored curfew and not to enter Kent except to attend court or for pre-arranged appointments with her solicitor.
Gethin, of The Southend, Ledbury, will appear before Southwark Crown Court on February 22.
