A man has died after being in a collision with a coach on Princess Parkway in Didsbury.

Police and paramedics were called to the scene near the junction with Barlow Moor Road just before 1.29pm, a spokeswoman for Greater Manchester Police confirmed.

Witnesses described how paramedics were tending to one man on the pavement.

He was taken to hospital but has since died.

His dog is also believed to have died at the scene.

Both carriageways of the A5103 Princess Parkway were closed while the emergency services dealt with the incident.

They have since reopened but motorists are being warned of severe delays.
