Woman killed in head-on collision on Fenland road

Police are appealing for witnesses following the fatal collision in Three Holes, near Wisbech, last night, Friday September 23.

It happened at about 6.30pm at the junction of Silt Road and Main Road on the A1101.

A silver Citreon Saxo was travelling up Silt Road towards the junction of Main Road when it was in collision with a black Golf GTI which had been heading from Cockley Road towards Three Holes. The collision caused both vehicles to leave the road into a ditch.
