Man dead in single car crash on country road

A driver was killed in a single car road accident last night.

The horror happened on a country road which links Houston with Inchinnan.

The B790 remains sealed off this morning and has led to the forced closure of a busy farm attraction and shop on Mother's Day.

The incident happened at 11.50pm last night and police confirmed a man died at the scene.

A police helicopter was also involved in the aftermath and the car involved was reportedly on fire.

It happened near the Barnhill Farm food complex.

The back road - which used to be known as the George Town Road - links Houston with Inchinnan and is the only way people can reach the farm.

Barnhill Farm said: “Unfortunately, due to a road traffic accident on Houston Road, we have had to make the decision to close the shop today.

“Apologies to all for the inconvenience.”

A Police Scotland spokeswoman said: “Officers attended a single car crash on Houston Road, Houston, around 11.50pm on Saturday, 26 March, 2022.

“A man died at the scene.

“The road remains closed while investigations are carried out.

“Anyone who has information about what happened or has dash cam footage is asked to contact Police Scotland on 101 quoting reference 4563 of 26 March, 2022.”
