Police appeal for information following a serious collision on Liverpool Road

At 3:30pm yesterday (Monday 23 December) we were called to reports of a road traffic collision on Liverpool Road in Irlam between two cars.

It is believed that one of the cars mounted the pavement and was involved in a collision with a second vehicle.

Sadly, it’s believed that a woman in her 60s suffered a medical episode at the wheel. Despite the best efforts of bystanders and emergency services, she sadly passed away at hospital shortly after.

No other injuries were reported.
