Pedestrian dies following road collision

A pedestrian has died following a collision involving a car on the A71 in West Lothian.

The 65-year-old woman died following the incident just west of Wilkieston around 7.10am this morning.

The collision also involved a blue Ford Fiesta car, which was travelling west at the time.

The 20-year-old male driver of the car was uninjured.

The road was closed for around five hours to allow for an investigation at the scene.

Sergeant Peter Houston of the Road Policing Unit in Livingston said: “Our thoughts are with the family of the lady involved. Enquiries are still continuing to establish the full circumstances of what happened in this tragic incident.

“I am appealing for anyone who may be able to help us and in particular any drivers on the A71 at the time who may have dashcam footage showing either the lady or car involved.

“Anyone with information can call 101, quoting incident 0524 of 16 December.”
