A spokesman for Sea Change said: “This wasn’t to do with any public traffic but a minor accident between two construction vehicles: a lorry unloading ballast tipped over onto a Breheny van.
“I understand no-one was hurt and, apart from some red faces, there were no other consequences, fortunately.”
The incident is not disrupting traffic on the newly-opened section of the Queensway Gateway road.
