Three children injured after school bus hits railway bridge in Newport

A double-decker school bus hit a railway bridge on Tregare Street in Newport at about 07:45 BST on Tuesday while travelling to the Welsh-medium secondary school Ysgol Gyfun Gwent Is Coed. The bus roof was ripped off, and three children were taken to hospital; Gwent Police said their injuries were not thought to be life-threatening. The road remains closed with diversions, and train delays and cancellations are expected between Newport and Hereford until the bridge is inspected. Emergency services attended, and a recovery vehicle began removing the bus.
