Crashes close Northwich Road

7:40pm Tuesday 7th February 2012

TWO separate accidents caused police to close one of the major routes out of Knutsford on Tuesday morning.

A HGV crashed through a hedge at 3.30am on Northwich Road and had to be lifted out. The road was closed as a result, and the driver escaped unhurt.

Later on, as the road was getting back to normal, a Ford Ka crashed close to the exit of Knutsford services at 8.44am.

A man was injured in the second accident.

The incidents caused major tailbacks on the A556 and into Knutsford.
