The man and woman were the first on scene and assisted with First Aid.

PC Emma Birrell of the Roads Policing Unit said: “We are looking to identify both witnesses who may be able to assist with our ongoing investigation.

“They may have been on a day trip or on holiday in the area so we are looking for help to try and identify them. Please contact us if you can assist.”

The 87-year-old pedestrian, who was local to the area, was airlifted to hospital in Stoke however sadly, she died as a result of her injuries.

The investigation is ongoing and anybody who may have been in the area at the time of the collision is asked to contact officers at the Eastern Roads Policing Unit on 101 or via live web chat quoting reference number X117649.
