Repeatedly bashed railway bridge hit again

A bridge which previously held the title for Britain's most bashed has been hit again by a lorry.

The A5 Watling Street bridge in Hinckley was closed in both directions after a lorry crashed into the railway bridge on Monday morning and badly damaged its trailer.

Leicestershire Police has since posted an update saying the road has reopened.
