Road Traffic Collision Report - A5 Five Crosses Roundabout, Gobowen

Dear Residents, 

We would like to thank members of the public for their assistance earlier today (Wednesday 11 November) as we responded to a collision involving a tractor and trailer transporting cattle. 

At around 12.30pm we were called to reports of a collision on the A5 near Five Crosses Roundabout in Gobowen. When we arrived we found the trailer had come to rest on its side while negotiating the roundabout.

The trailer was carrying cattle and required specialist assistance to ensure the safety and welfare of the animals, as well as those at the scene. We would like to extend our sincere thanks to the local farming community for their prompt assistance, support, and expertise in helping to safely manage and recover the cattle involved. Their response was invaluable and greatly appreciated by all agencies in attendance.

We would also like to thank members of the public for their patience, understanding, and cooperation whilst road closures and traffic diversions were in place.

Thankfully, no serious injuries were reported (to the public or the cattle), and through the joint efforts of emergency services, local farmers, and members of the public, the incident was resolved as safely and efficiently as possible.
