Police appeal for witnesses to Alderley Edge traffic accident

Cheshire police are appealing for witnesses to a fatal road traffic collision that occurred yesterday evening (Monday, November 24).

At 7.49pm, officers received reports of a single-vehicle collision on Macclesfield Road in Alderley Edge, near to The Wizard public house. It is thought that a silver Peugeot 206 was overtaking a vehicle, but swerved to avoid another car − a black Fiat Panda that was travelling in the opposite direction – and collided with a tree.

Sadly, the driver of the Peugeot, a 24-year-old woman from the Macclesfield area, sustained fatal injuries.

Police would like to speak to anyone who witnessed anything in the run-up to the incident or just afterward. They are particularly keen to trace the driver of the vehicle that was overtaken, and would urge them to make contact.

Anyone with information should call PC Paul Burke on the 101 number, quoting incident 803 of November 24, 2014.
