Hey everyone, some breaking news from Worcester today. Foregate Street, right in the heart of the city, has been completely closed after a woman in her 50s was hit by a bus. The incident happened at around 1:50 pm this afternoon, and emergency services were quickly on the scene. The woman has been taken to the hospital, but at this stage, the extent of her injuries hasn’t been disclosed.
