As reported yesterday, the A180 was closed for 6 hours as a result of a Grimsby serious road traffic incident near the Great Coates Interchange near Grimsby. Very sadly a man has died.
Humberside Police have issued the following statement in a quest to find out what happened:
An orange and blue box van was travelling along the westbound carriageway around 4pm when it was seen to veer across two lanes, hit a lamp post and end up in a ditch by the side of the road.
Emergency crews attended and the driver of the van, who is from West Yorkshire, was sadly pronounced dead at the scene.
