A WOMAN is in 'critical' conditon after being struck by a white van on the Kingston Bridge.

The 27-year-old was walking on the bridge just after 1am this morning when the van hit her while driving on the motorway.

The van struck her at Junction 18 Bothwell Street off ramp.

She was taken to hospital where her condition is described as 'critical', while the 53-year-old van driver escaped the incident without injury.

Officers closed off a section of the M8 to investigate the crash and are now asking members of the public for dash cam footage. 

Sergeant Kenny Malaney, of Road Policing Unit Glasgow, said: "We are currently trying to establish exactly what happened here and I am keen to speak to anyone who witnessed the collision, or saw a pedestrian on that area of the motorway, at around 1am and hasn’t yet contacted police.

"In particular, I would ask anyone with dash cam devices to check their footage as it could hold images which could prove to be significant in our enquiries.

"Anyone with information is asked to contact Police Scotland on 101 quoting incident 0282 of Sunday, February 13, 2022."
