Delays as notorious railway bridge struck again

Drivers have been warned to expect delays after a notorious bridge in Leicestershire was struck by a lorry again.

The railway bridge over the A5 Watling Street in Hinckley - which was once dubbed the "most bashed" in Britain[1] - was struck by a lorry on Friday morning.

Leicestershire Police said the road was now open but added there was still "heavy traffic".

The driver was not injured, with no serious damage to the railway bridge, the force added.
