Tragedy as Three Horses Killed on A-Road After Being Struck by Vehicles
Two separate crashes involving a lorry and a car struck three loose horses, causing over nine hours of road closure and traffic delays, police said.
- On Thursday, January 15, the A3 northbound in Surrey became the scene of fatal crashes that killed three horses in two collisions just north of Guildford.
- At about 1.40am, Surrey Police responded to reports of collisions involving two loose horses struck by an LGV and a third horse hit by a car on the carriageway.
- Traffic cameras show long queues stretching back into Guildford with the A3 Northbound shut for over nine hours and delays of around 60 minutes for motorists.
- Emergency services and highways teams have deployed resources to assist traffic management as specialist clean-up works remain ongoing on the A3 northbound between A247 Burntcommon and B2039 Ockham, with Highways England managing diversions.
- Ongoing enquiries by Surrey Police will determine how the animals came to be on the motorway, with officers engaging the drivers of the LGV and the car and seeking information from members of the public via MyLondon live coverage.
