A Police Scotland spokesperson said: “At around 3.15am on Saturday October 22, officers were called to a report of a lorry having crashed into barriers on the M90 at the Broxden roundabout, Perth.
“The road is partially closed to allow for the vehicle to be recovered.”
Traffic starting to build at roundabout
One eyewitness told The Courier: “We drove past at around 10am and didn’t realise what had happened at first.
“Just as we were leaving the Broxden Roundabout towards Stirling we noticed a Co-op lorry was in the central island.
“It must have ploughed straight through the junction somehow.
“It looked like it was getting towed out.
“There was a bit of traffic building coming up to the roundabout from the A9 northbound.”
