A MOTORCYCLIST HAS been injured after a bridge over a motorway in England collapsed.
The incident occurred over the M20 in Kent just after noon. Kent Fire and Rescue said crews administered first aid to a male motorcyclist who was removed to hospital by the ambulance service.
His injuries are not believed to be life-threatening.
Images from the scene show a large section of the footbridge lying on the ground and a truck with extensive damage to the top of its trailer. The rest of the footbridge remained in place.
Kent Police said it is believed the lorry collided with the pedestrian bridge before it collapsed.
No one else is believed to have been injured.

This government seems to have no problem passing laws that have great potential to expose citizens to danger and deny them rights, but when it comes to introducing laws to enhance citizens’ accessibility to social goods, such as housing etc, they find any amount of barriers to use as excuses to do nothing.
@Jim O’Sullivan: which proposed laws ?
Dangerous, just look at Canada and see where this goes…..
@McMahon G: Or the Netherlands, Belgium, Switzerland, various American states, Luxembourg, etc.
@McMahon G: Forty million Canadians wouldn’t agree. I see it as a basic right that people are entitled to ask for. Who would want to suffer needlessly? We wouldn’t do it to a pet.
So do it!
Funny how evertime ffg are presented with a situation that will clash with Catholic ethos, They deflect and kick the issue down the road. This is cowardice of the highest kind and something a person who claims to be capable enough to represent citizens , Should never do, thats if they had an once of integrity.
have your say
