The road was closed between Primrose Road and the A59 for around five hours while police dealt with the incident. It reopened shortly before 1pm.

Drivers had to be advised to find alternative routes in the area and slow traffic was caused by the closures.

Sgt Adam Dawson, of Lancashire Constabulary, said: “My thoughts are with the driver of the vehicle, his family and his friends at this very difficult time. These are tragic circumstances.

“We are appealing for information following the collision and would urge anyone who saw what happened to contact police.

“Furthermore, if you saw the vehicle described in the moments before the incident please get in touch.”

Anyone with information can contact police on 101 quoting log reference 0367 of January 28.
