A stretch of Parkgate Road in Mollington had to be closed while a car was recovered from a hedge on Tuesday morning (November 3).

A member of the public found the vehicle perched on its side on the hedge shortly before 8.30am and reported it to the emergency services.

The A540 was partially blocked between the Townfield Lane junction and Texaco roundabout while the incident was dealt with.

A spokeswoman for Cheshire Constabulary said that there are no known casualties and the owner of the car has been contacted.

Road users in Chester faced a frustrating commute this morning, with a number of routes experiencing heavier traffic than normal.
