Paramedics are in attendance in Lake this afternoon (Thursday) where a pedestrian is laying injured in the road.
The Isle of Wight Ambulance Service has dispatched an ambulance crew and a rapid response paramedic to The Fairway, outside Tesco Express.
It’s understood an elderly person has fallen, sustaining unknown injuries.
The road has been closed by Police which is causing some travel disruption.
Traffic is heavy on Lake Hill, backing up to The Broadway.
UPDATE @17:04 – Emergency services have now cleared the area and the traffic is flowing in all directions.
I hope the elderly person is going to be okay
The only problem there is the drivers who refuse to think and stick to the speed limits; and this is an island wide problem with drivers of all ages and sexes.
Hope the gentleman is doing ok? Sending love. X
The cars don’t slow down when coming around the bend, even when all of the kids are coming out of school.
The whole of the fairway needs speed humps. Surprised there have not been more fatalities their.
I can understand pedestrians frustrations. Accident just waiting to happen.
