Police are appealing for witnesses after a man suffered fatal injuries in a two-vehicle collision on the M180 motorway yesterday evening.

The motorway was closed between J2 and J3 at the time of the collision. This caused a build up of traffic between J1 and J2 with vehicles queuing to leave the M180 at J2.

A Scania G380 green/white large goods vehicle was stationary eastbound in the inside lane. A blue Ford Transit van also travelling eastbound in the inside lane has collided with the rear of the goods vehicle. This happened around 7.50pm yesterday (Wednesday, 28 March).

The Transit driver, a 41-year-old Cleethorpes man, suffered fatal injuries in the collision. Nobody else was injured.

Officers want to hear from anyone who witnessed the collision, particularly two vehicles understood to have stopped at the scene but left prior to police attending. Anyone with information is urged to contact South Yorkshire Police on 101 quoting incident number 1160 of Wednesday, 28 March.

The view of the railway line towards Elsham signal box is between Junction 4 and Junction 5 on the M180, 15 + mins away from between Junction 2 and Junction 3. Also its in Humberside Police area jurisdiction
