During the recovery process, Pellon Lane and Wadworth Street was closed for two hours.

Eye witness Zoe McManus said: "All I know is that I was walking from doctors and came across this.

"I was told not to walk down Pellon Lane."

Two vehicles from Calderdale Council were on scene to grit the section of Pellon Lane and Wadworth Street, as a precaution after fuel and other liquids escaped both vehicles during the collision, confirmed a police officer.
