Woman dies after being hit by a car near Glasgow shopping centre

A woman has died after being struck by a car in Glasgow.

The 46-year-old was hit by a blue Subara Impreza on Barrhead Road, near the Silverburn shopping centre, on Monday.

We told earlier how the incident happened on the junction with Boydstone Road at about 5.35pm.

The woman was rushed to the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital to be treated for her injuries.

But tragically she died a short time later.

A police spokesman confirmed the road was closed until 1.45am on Tuesday whilst officers carried out an investigation.

Sergeant Stewart Taylor, of the Road Policing Unit, said: “We are supporting the woman's family at this incredibly difficult time.

“Enquiries into the circumstances surrounding this crash are ongoing and we are encouraging anyone with any information to get in contact with officers.

“A number of passers-by stopped to assist at the scene and we are asking those who did to contact police.

 “If you were in the area at the time or have any potential dashcam footage that could assist with our investigation, I would urge that you get in touch via 101, quoting reference number 2483 of 14 December.”
