At around 10.30am on Saturday, July 6, a white Mercedes travelling southbound, having joined the road from A509 Portway, collided with the central barrier and stopped in the opposite carriageway.

The driver sadly died at the scene despite the efforts of South Central Ambulance Service.

His next of kin are being supported by specially trained officers.
