Police close the M62 in both directions after a woman is seriously injured in a fall from a motorway bridge. The incident prompts an emergency response, with officers called after the woman is reportedly seen on the wrong side of the railings.
Local reports describe the closure as a precaution while authorities deal with the scene. The Express says police issue a statement following the incident, though details of her condition and the circumstances around how she fell are not specified in the available summaries. The common focus across outlets is the disruption caused by the bridge incident and the seriousness of the injury, with both describing the initial sighting and police involvement.
Authorities are treating the event as an active incident as the road remains closed while investigations and recovery operations continue.
