Police are appealing for witnesses following a fatal road traffic collision in Milton Keynes.

The incident happened just after 5.30am this morning (20/7), when a collision occurred between a pedestrian and a Volkswagen Passat on H9 Groveway, at the junction with Simpson Drive.

Sadly, the pedestrian, a 19-year-old woman, was declared deceased at the scene. Her next of kin have been informed and are being supported by specially trained officers. The Volkswagen driver did not suffer any injuries.

Road closures were in place between the junction with Newport Road and the Walton Drive roundabout. These have since been lifted.

Lead investigating officer, Police Sergeant Matt Cadmore of the Serious Collison Investigation Unit, said: “Tragically, a woman has died following this collision. Our thoughts are with her loved ones at this extremely difficult time and we have specially-trained officers supporting the deceased woman’s family.

“I am appealing for anyone who saw the collision to contact us.

“I am also appealing for anyone with a dash-camera who was driving on either carriageway of H9 Groveway at around 5.30am this morning, to please check their recordings and let us know if they captured anything that could help our investigation.
