Police Scotland is appealing for information following a fatal road traffic collision on the M90 near Rosyth on Saturday, June 18th.

At around 8pm, a Citroen C4 was involved in a collision with a Land Rover Discovery on the southbound carriageway north of Junction 2.

Sadly, the 29-year-old female driver of the Citroen was pronounced dead at the scene.
