Road in Kingsbridge closed as investigations into woman's death continue
Embankment Road will be shut between the cemetery and Bowcombe Creek Bridge until around midday
A road in Kingsbridge is closed this morning as police continue to investigate the death of a woman, one week on.
Embankment Road will be shut between the cemetery and Bowcombe Creek Bridge until around midday.
A man charged with murder appeared in court on Monday.
On social media, Kingsbridge Police said: "We will have to close Embankment Road again on 30/04/2025 between 09:30 to 12:00 to allow advanced photography of the area for the ongoing investigation.
"The road will be closed between the Cemetery on Embankment Road to Bowcombe Creek Bridge.
"Please note that the lane to the NORTH of Embankment Road and Bowcombe Creek Bridge will remain OPEN. It is narrow, there are pinch / passing points, so please take it slow and only travel on it if you need to.
"If you’re coming from the West / town direction: there will be signs up at Warren Road and we suggest you turn around there. If coming from the East, we will have signs up around Noyces and suggest larger vehicles turn around as the lanes will be awful for HGVs. Hopefully the map I’ve drawn on paint (yes, paint) makes it clear: yellow = passable / access only, but red = absolutely shut.
"If you live inside the closed section, ask one of us and we’ll let you out.
"The work will be done as quickly as it can, but please bear with us."
