Omagh to Newtownstewart road re-opens after ‘serious’ crash

THE A5 road has re-opened between Omagh and Newtownstewart following a ‘serious’ road crash yesterday.

The accident, which happened close to the entrance of the Ulster American Folk Park, caused extensive disruption for most of the day.

Last night’s events at a bluegrass festival at the folk park were called off as a result of the collision.

Police this morning said the road has now re-opened.

A PSNI spokesperson said more details about the crash would be released in ‘due course’.
