A woman has died following a collision on the A1(M) near Leeming.

The incident was reported at around 11.15pm last night and happened on the southbound carriageway.

It resulted in the A1(M) being closed in both directions between junction 50 at Ripon and junction 52 at Catterick. 

The woman, aged in her 30s and from the Leyburn area, was a passenger in a car that had parked on the hard shoulder of the on-slip.

She was hit by another vehicle after walking into the carriageway.

An air ambulance was called and police investigators examined the scene and recovered the vehicles involved. The road reopened around 8am.

A North Yorkshire Police statement said:

“Despite the efforts of members of the public who stopped to provide first aid, and the emergency services, she sadly died at the scene.
“Police are appealing to any motorists who witnessed the collision but have not yet contacted or spoken to the police to get in touch.
“Officers are also appealing to anyone who saw a parked vehicle on the southbound on-slip from Leeming Bar to the A1M, or a person in the carriageway prior to the collision, to get in touch, including anyone with dashcam footage.
“Anyone with information who can assist the investigation and has not already spoken to the police is asked to email marie.williams@northyorkshire.police.uk or call 101 and pass information for incident 12230236443.”
