A DAF lorry driver was taken to hospital following another crash at Romsey's Greatbridge Road rail bridge.

His 40ft long trailer completely demolished railings alongside Fishlake Stream on the northside of the notorious bridge over the A3057 last Thursday evening.

The unnamed Calmore man suffered from bruising to his head and leg. His truck's cab was jammed under the crash barrier on impact and the trailer went over at a 45 degree angle.

The bridge railings ended up at the bottom of the stream. The lorry was heading south into town when the accident happened at about 7pm.

Trains on the Southampton to Cardiff line were not affected. But the Romsey to Stockbridge road was blocked at the bridge for about three hours.

Last week's crash was the latest in a long line of incidents at the bridge.
