Haslemere Road closed, Tuesday 27th May 2014 - Catherine (27th May 2014 - 10:34:25) Does anyone know what has happen? The police have close the road just after Erles Road.... On Twitter - "B2131 #Liphook - Haslemere Rd closed in both directions between Portsmouth Rd & Devils Ln due to an accident. Expect localised delays."

Re: Haslemere Road closed, Tuesday 27th May 2014 - Betty (27th May 2014 - 10:47:44) It's closed from Malthouse Meadows as well. Major incident in a house where road is closed off is All police can say. They are not sure how long road is going to be closed off. So best to use Midhurst Road and Devils Lane to get to areas past Malthouse Meadows and to Haslemere at present. Would not recommend Devils Lane, too narrow and muddy. I would say use Midhurst Road, Highfield Lane and then join Haslemere Road.

Re: Haslemere Road closed, Tuesday 27th May 2014 - A. Ryan (27th May 2014 - 11:03:06) Devils Lane has been a nightmare this morning and continues to be so. Traffic has had to reverse both ways due to so much of it.

Re: Haslemere Road closed, Tuesday 27th May 2014 - Mark (27th May 2014 - 11:48:44) The following statement has been received from Hampshire Police regarding this matter. Police are currently in attendance at an address in Haslemere Road, Liphook. At 7.24 this morning (Tuesday, May 27), were called after the body of an elderly woman was found on the driveway. The address has been cordoned off. Haslemere Road will also be closed temporarily between Portsmouth Road and Devils Lane whilst this incident is dealt with. The death is currently being treated as unexplained. It is very early stages, and we will be able to confirm more details in due course.

Re: Haslemere Road closed, Tuesday 27th May 2014 - Michelle V (27th May 2014 - 15:07:34) Has anyone got an update with regard to the Haslemere Road closure. Thanks

Re: Haslemere Road closed, Tuesday 27th May 2014 - Betty (27th May 2014 - 15:09:49) my thoughts are with the poor Lady and her family at this very upsetting time.

Re: Haslemere Road closed, Tuesday 27th May 2014 - Michelle V (27th May 2014 - 15:20:02) Mine are as well, I didn't mean any offence to her family or friends. Do you know if the road is still closed as my friend would normally use the Haslemere Road when getting home. Thank you and apologies if I upset anyone as it was not my intention to do so.

Re: Haslemere Road closed, Tuesday 27th May 2014 - glynn (27th May 2014 - 15:32:40) Hi The road is re opened now.

Re: Haslemere Road closed, Tuesday 27th May 2014 - Michelle V (27th May 2014 - 15:38:30) Many thanks

Re: Haslemere Road closed, Tuesday 27th May 2014 - Betty (27th May 2014 - 17:07:58) People amaze me . If this poor lady was one of your relations and was found in this sad way. You would be disgusted and upset by the selfishness of people on here. Have some respect. So your day has been slightly disrupted by having to use a different route because of this poor lady's circumstances. At least you have your loved ones to see. Have some respect for this lady's poor family at this very sad time.

Re: Haslemere Road closed, Tuesday 27th May 2014 - Andy (27th May 2014 - 17:21:50) Betty - if you re-read the thread properly you will see that nobody is being disrespectful in any way to the lady in question. Moreover, people have been in every way sympathetic once it has become clear what the cause of the disruption was.

Re: Haslemere Road closed, Tuesday 27th May 2014 - Debbie (27th May 2014 - 17:35:21) I agree with Betty, disgusting that people feel their two minute diversion doesn't quite fit with their day. Perhaps if something similar had happened to them, they may behave a little more considerately!

Re: Haslemere Road closed, Tuesday 27th May 2014 - Debs (27th May 2014 - 18:39:00) Betty - no-one is being disrespectful. But you on the other hand have been very rude. Was there really any need?

Re: Haslemere Road closed, Tuesday 27th May 2014 - Catherine (27th May 2014 - 20:48:16) I originally posted this as I live on Haslemere road and very near to this incident, I was merely asking why it was closed as no sign of a car accident just police and they couldn't tell us. I feel very sorry for the lady and her family and friends, I can't imagine how they are all feeling.

Re: Haslemere Road closed, Tuesday 27th May 2014 - Mark (28th May 2014 - 12:57:07) I actually think that those people making inaccurate accusations of inappropriate comments should apologise (that's You Betty and Debbie). In future they should also take more time to read and reflect before causing further upset. People went out of their way to not show disrespect but yet were accused anyway.

Re: Haslemere Road closed, Tuesday 27th May 2014 - S (28th May 2014 - 13:52:05) Such tragic and shocking news. I feel like any squabbling over whose response was right or wrong is wholly inappropriate, perhaps it is time to stop commenting on this thread altogether.

Re: Haslemere Road closed, Tuesday 27th May 2014 - DML (28th May 2014 - 14:23:44) Unfortunately so many topics on this forum seem to turn into quite unnecessary back-biting exercises, and it's a shame this one has too. I'd like to send my deepest condolences to the family concerned and apologise for the nonsense on this thread.

Re: Haslemere Road closed, Tuesday 27th May 2014 - Andy (28th May 2014 - 15:24:30) S - There isn't any squabbling, It looks like Betty and Debbie haven't read the thread properly and they are being rightly castigated for their posts.

Re: Haslemere Road closed, Tuesday 27th May 2014 - Mark (12th Jun 2014 - 11:52:15) Police have confirmed that the death is being treated as NOT suspicious and a file has now been passed to the coroner. Our thoughts are with the family and friends of the deceased.
