A housebuilding firm has apologised for the disruption caused by a lorry that shed its load on a Nottinghamshire street - forcing its closure for hours. The vehicle was cordoned off in Thackeray's Lane just past its junction with Fisher Avenue in Woodthorpe on Tuesday, May 30.
Later that evening the same lorry was involved in an incident in nearby Sandfield Road, Arnold, which left a car damaged. It was one of two flatbed lorries transporting parts of factory built homes to a 131-house development off Rolleston Drive.
ilke Homes, which is delivering the homes, said it was an "isolated event" and said it would be reviewing the route. The homes are manufactured at the firm's 250,000 sq. ft factory in Knaresborough, North Yorkshire, before being moved onto site.
