Tributes have been paid to a woman who was killed in a collision on A1, close to St Neots on Thursday (July 28).

Colette McCulloch, 35, of the Lane, in Wyboston, was walking along the stretch of road when she was hit by HGV at about 3am.

The incident happened on the A1 between the B654 Wyboston and A428, near St Neots.

In a statement, her parents said: “Our daughter was a graduate in English Literature at the University of Sussex. As well as writing extraordinary poems and short stories, she was also a talented artist who had completed a Foundation course at Wimbledon Art College.
