A power company wasn't immediately informed - and the cable 're-energised a number of times' as vehicles passed by
Video footage of the terrifying moment a motorway worker was nearly hit by a live power cable has been released after a civil engineering company was fined more than £4 million following a Health and Safety Executive prosecution.
Kier has now been fined £4.4m after its workers twice struck overhead powerlines during overnight roadworks between junctions 16 and 18 on the M6, near Sandbach in Cheshire. In one incident, an overhead cable brought down by workers from the civil engineering company hit a lorry, a court heard. During the first incident, on March 28 2018, three Kier workers accidentally struck and severed an 11kV overhead powerline that landed on the M6 and in a nearby field.
During the second incident, on January 21 2019, a Kier tractor struck an overhead cable which led to an unmarked 11kV powerline being hit and snapped by an oncoming lorry. Both incidents took place during overnight roadworks between junctions 16 and 18 on the M6 near Sandbach in Cheshire.
