A lorry has crashed into a ticket booth at Red Funnel’s Southampton terminal.

Footage shows the back end of the vehicle clipping the booth and knocking it to the ground.

It is not known whether anyone was in the booth at the time, but video does show two people leaving only moments before.

Footage caught on camera by Solent Ships shows Red Funnel staff and onlookers rushing to the collapsed booth.

The incident happened at just before 1pm this afternoon (Monday). A car, stationary on the other side of the booth, has also been involved.

Updated 2.20pm

Red Funnel has confirmed three staff members were inside the booth when it collapsed.

A spokesperson has said:

“Following a traffic accident at Terminal 1 in Southampton this afternoon we are expecting delays and increased levels of traffic in the Town Quay area.

“Three Red Funnel colleagues were inside a check in kiosk which was struck by an HGV this afternoon. Our priority is the safety of our team members and passengers, and although there are no significant injuries, both Police and Ambulance services are in attendance as a precaution.
