Man taken to hospital after crash saw busy West Lothian road closed by police
A man has been taken to hospital after a crash on a busy West Lothian road saw the street closed.
Emergency services were called to Fauldhouse Road in Longridge at around 10am on November 6 following reports of a single car crash.
The road was closed and bus diversions were put in place while investigations were carried out at the scene.
West Lothian Council posted about the incident on social media around an hour after the crash was first reported, but did not give details about the nature of the incident.
Speaking at around 11am, a council spokesman said: “Please note that the B7010 Fauldhouse Road, Longridge has been closed at the request of the police. We will update you when this is open.”
But police have since confirmed that there was a crash on the road and that a man has been taken to hospital as a result.
A Police Scotland spokesman said: “A man was taken to hospital as a precaution. The road was closed to allow for recover. Enquiries are ongoing.”
