London, Dec 14, (PA Media/dpa/GNA) – A double decker bus has hit a railway bridge, on the outskirts of Glasgow.
Footage posted online shows a First Bus, wedged under the bridge on Cook Street.
Police Scotland, who received a report of the crash at about 5.55 pm (1755 GMT) on Saturday, said a number of roads in Glasgow have been closed.
Emergency services are at the scene, and drivers have been asked to avoid the area.
It is not known in which direction the vehicle was travelling, but it is believed to have been on route 4A between Broomhill and Eaglesham.
Passenger Spike Turner, who was sitting near the front of the bus, told the BBC the driver had taken a wrong turn and crashed “straight into the bridge.”
He said: “I was fine, the lady in front of me might have been concussed. The bridge itself wasn’t high enough to hit anyone’s heads, but parts of the bus exterior have swung down.
“The man in the front seat was in a really, really bad state. He’s got a lot of blood and a massive gash on his head.”
