City centre street taped off with police and paramedics at scene after coach crashes into scaffolding - Manchester Evening News

A city centre street was been cordoned off this evening after a coach crashed into scaffolding surrounding a building. Charlotte Street, just off Portland Street, was taped off with both police and paramedics at the scene following the collision shortly before 6:30pm.

There was a Megabus liveried coach inside the cordon, with its digital display saying it was a Glasgow M17 service.

One eyewitness said the coach collided with scaffolding which currently surrounds a building on the corner of Charlotte Street and Portland Street, as it turned from the main road into the side street..

Police said scaffolding then fell onto the vehicle, causing it to be evacuated. One man suffered injuries that have been described as 'minor.'

Paramedics, police and fire crews all attended the scene which is close to the Yates bar on Portland Street and also a short distance from Chorlton Street Bus Station where several Megabus services operate from.

The witness said there was broken glass visible on the floor. The traffic service Inrix said a number of bus services were diverted as a result of the road closure though it is now understood to have re-opened.

An eyewitness said the bus struck the scaffolding

A Greater Manchester Police (GMP) spokesperson said: "Police were called to reports of a road traffic collision on Charlotte Street at 6.24pm this evening (Friday 4 August 2023).

"Scaffolding collapsed and landed on a bus, causing the bus to be evacuated. One male suffered a minor injury and was treated at the scene. Colleagues from NWAS and GMFRS were also in attendance."

Megabus have been approached for comment.
