"Life Changing Injuries" on Cotham Hill

Cotham Hill, 11:30am, December 1. Crisp, and traffic free. Lovely.

Or is it? Why exactly is it traffic free? It looks like the road is closed and one bystander was talking about a group of police chasing someone down a side road.

What's that at the end? A lorry. One turning into the builders' merchants.

Why has it stopped?

The bike under the passenger front wheels provides a clue. Apparently while the lorry was doing a wide turn into the site, someone on a bicycle managed to end up under its wheels. At the scene, people were saying "broken leg", but the story is now that a woman cyclist has been left with life-changing injuries.

All we can say is that we hope that is not the case -that she does recover.
