HGV Stuck Under Railway Bridge In Shotton
A HGV has become lodged under a railway bridge this afternoon.
North Wales Police have said “HGV stuck under railway bridge in Chester Rd West Shotton. Large amount of traffic. Shotton to Flint direction. Please avoid if possible”.
Unsurprisingly train services running through this station may be delayed is the official word.
Heather posted on Facebook to say: “I just watched it happen! Even got out first to check it was going to fit ?”
