POLICE, ambulance and fire officers are currently (Thursday 4.50pm) attending a single vehicle collision on the outskirts of Goole.

The incident, on the roundabout close to Junction 36 of the M62, has involved a chemical tanker.

A Humberside Fire Service spokesman said the driver of the tanker was released after becoming trapped and was being treated by paramedics.

A ten metre cordon had been placed around the vehicle as a precaution.

While no chemicals had been spilt, the spokesman said small amount of oil had leaked from the vehicle and a specialist officer was at the scene to advise on clearing the site.

2130

White Volvo tractor unit.
Lift tank, presumably collected from Goole docks, or not, as the case may be.
Lift tank is lying at the Tesco off slip, Volvo and skelly have been picked up and another is waiting.
I don’t do speculation, but it fell over on a roundabout, possibly not long after it was picked up,
or not.

I’m guessing it happened around 1615 because when I passed the junction there were four trucks, one with hazards on, stopped on the off slip
and one of Stobart’s finest was reversing across the bridge, as if he/she could see that there would be no way past for some time.
