THIS dashcam footage shows the aftermath of a frightening incident in which a lorry came off the road and ended up in a verge on the A419.
Police said a closure was implemented on Stroud Road near Cirencester on Sunday, November 8 after the vehicle came off the A road.
The footage, supplied to Newsquest by a member of the public, shows a lorry in the verge close to the old Hailey Wood Sawmill site, accompanied by two police vehicles.
A logo for the former delivery service company Yodel can be seen on the side of the lorry.
The time on the dashcam video is just after 3pm on Sunday.
Luckily, the lorry’s driver was uninjured in the incident.
A spokesperson for Gloucestershire Constabulary said on Monday: “A road closure was put into place on the A419 Stroud Road near Cirencester yesterday to allow for the recovery of a lorry which had come off the road.
“The driver of the lorry did not sustain any injuries.”

It is unknown why the lorry ended up in the verge, but the incident occurred after a yellow warning for fog was issued by the Met Office for the area.
Online, there was also talk of a car in trees in the area of the lorry incident early on Sunday.
Yodel was acquired by parcel locker firm InPost in a £106 million deal in April last year.
It ceased trading for good in July this year, with all its operations moved under the InPost brand.
