Lorry Collision Disrupts Saturday Travel Oakham High Street
A Tesco lorry collided with scaffolding and a traffic light outside the Wetherspoon's pub in Oakham this evening, causing significant disruption to Saturday traffic.
The incident occurred as the lorry was attempting to turn out of New Street onto the High Street. The vehicle struck scaffolding erected near The Wetherspoon's, Pub also damaging a traffic light in the process.
No one was injured in the collision, despite the central and busy location. However, the lorry became an obstruction, effectively blocking part of the road and causing delays for motorists navigating Oakham town centre.
