SOME trains were cancelled on the Borders Railway this afternoon after a lorry collided with a bridge.
Police Scotland were seen at Newcraighall Road, close to the Newcraighall Park & Ride, following the incident.
Scotrail alerted passengers to the disruption on social media.
It tweeted: "We've had reports of a a vehicle striking a bridge at Newcraighall, affecting services between Edinburgh and Tweedbank.
"The bridge is a red structure so will need to be examined by Network Rail Scotland before services can pass over the bridge again, the line is currently closed."
However Scotrail announced at 5.04pm that the bridge has been inspected, and the line has reopened.
Police Scotland have been contacted for comment.
