Barriers to be installed along The Kingsway after death

The barriers will be installed along The Kingsway on Sunday morning

Safety barriers are to be installed along The Kingsway in Swansea following the death of a police officer.

Sgt Louise Lucas, 41, was off duty when she was hit by a bus on the road on 31 March.

She was airlifted to hospital but later died. Her daughter Olivia, eight, was also injured in the incident.

The 1.2m-high barriers will be erected on Sunday morning, with the work expected to take up to six hours to complete.

The move follows a call for "urgent action" from a coroner investigating the death of Daniel Foss, 37, who died after he too was hit by a bus on the road in 2013.

Swansea's acting senior coroner Colin Phillips said the road had a "serious design issue", which "must be addressed" by Swansea council.
