A MAN has died after an incident on the new Queensferry Crossing. 

A Police Scotland spokesman said: “We are currently working alongside our partner agencies to investigate an incident on the Queensferry Crossing that resulted in a man sustaining fatal injuries.

“The call was received around 12.20pm and, sadly, the man was pronounced dead a short time later.
