Somerset: So, there’s been a bit of a mess on the A358 after a lorry crash. The road’s closed, and it’s causing quite the stir. Some drivers just aren’t getting the memo.
Yesterday, a lorry went off the road and caught fire, which is why the A358 Halsway Hill is shut. The council is trying to clean up the mess, but some folks are just ignoring the barriers and signs.
It’s not just a minor issue. These drivers are spreading mud and fuel all over the place, making the cleanup even harder and more expensive. The council is asking everyone to respect the closure and be patient.
Avon and Somerset Police were on the scene early in the morning when the crash happened. They’ve closed the road between two junctions to keep everyone safe. Thankfully, no injuries were reported.
