A black Hyandai car was involved in a collision with a telegraph pole on the Haylie Brae on Saturday evening at around 8.20pm.

The woman driver escaped without injury, although the car was badly damaged. The road was closed for a period of around an hour and a half while the pole was removed.

There had been heavy water on road surfaces on the A760, and on the A78 outside West Kilbride, and in many other areas due to the torrential rain that day.
