Friday, September 12, 2025 -A man has died following a serious crash on the M57, police confirmed late last night. Emergency services rushed to the scene after reports of a multi-vehicle collision, but despite efforts from paramedics, the man was pronounced dead at the scene. 

Authorities closed a section of the motorway for several hours as investigators worked to determine the cause of the accident and clear debris.
