Edinburgh HGV crashes on busy road as glass strewn across pavement

A HGV has mounted the pavement after crashing on a busy Edinburgh road. The lorry appeared to veer off the city's Maybury Road at around 10.30am on Monday, June 30. Images from the scene show the white lorry with a smashed windscreen and a dent in the driver side door as well as damage to the front bumper.

Glass and debris can also be seen strewn across the pavement as the incident took place right next to a bus stop. A Lothian double decker bus can also be seen at the side of the road. It is understood emergency services have responded to the incident, but traffic is able to pass on either side.

It is unknown if there are any reports of injuries.

Police Scotland and Lothian were approached for comment.
