Cheshire Police are now appealing for witnesses following the serious crash. The road was closed on the northbound carriageway and reopened around midday as investigation works took place.
Firefighters from Powey Lane and Ellesmere Port attended the scene and 'rapidly extricated' one casualty from a vehicle. Sergeant Simon Degg said: “This is a busy stretch of road and I know that even at this time of night motorists would have been using it.
“We have a number of enquiries underway and as part of those we are urging anyone who has any dashcam or CCTV footage that could assist us from the area around the time of the collision and has not yet done so, to please get in touch. The same goes to anyone who may have witnessed the collision or the vehicles around the time of the incident. Any information, no matter how big or small, is greatly appreciated.”
Anyone with information is urged to contact Cheshire Police quoting IML 1285698 here or call 101.
