An incident where a lorry shed its load on a Nottinghamshire street - forcing its closure for hours - was an accident waiting to happen, residents have said. Two flatbed lorries carrying large loads were 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, which left a car damaged. Modular Movements, the firm responsible for transporting the wide load, said it was investigating the incident.
"The company is aware of an incident. We are currently investigating and are unable to comment further until this investigation is complete," read a statement by the firm.
