Part of Hamilton highway closed after car hit pedestrian

A section of State Highway 1C in Hamilton, New Zealand, was closed after a car collided with a pedestrian in the Frankton suburb. The incident occurred on Lincoln Street around 9:50 am on Sunday, leaving the pedestrian in critical condition. As a result, Lincoln Street was closed between the Rifle Range Road/Norton Road roundabout and Edgar Street, though access to the nearby refuse center remained open. The closure is expected to last several hours while the Serious Crash Unit investigates the scene. Motorists in the area have been warned to anticipate delays due to ongoing emergency operations.
