Man Killed in Van-Lorry Crash on Peterborough Nene Parkway

A fatal collision occurred on the Nene Parkway in Peterborough on the morning of July 31 involving a stationary white Mercedes-Benz Panel Van and a silver Mercedes-Benz Box Van. The driver of the white van, a man in his 40s from Peterborough, died at the scene, while the driver of the silver van was taken to hospital as a precaution. The northbound carriageway of the Nene Parkway remained closed for several hours following the crash, causing significant traffic delays, but was fully reopened later in the day. Police have appealed for witnesses and dashcam footage to assist with their investigation and have made no arrests so far. Emergency services, including Cambridgeshire Fire and Rescue and the East of England Ambulance Service, responded promptly to the incident. Authorities advised motorists to avoid the area during the road closure while investigations and clearances were underway.
