A construction worker has been seriously injured after being trapped under a lorry at developer Stanhope’s Television Centre project in White City.

The London Fire Brigade reported that they helped free a man from the back axel of a waste disposal lorry on Wood Lane after being called to the incident just before 8:30am.

London’s Air Ambulance was also at the scene and the man was taken to hospital.

A spokesperson for Stanhope said: “An incident occurred this morning at the Television Centre development site involving a vehicle and a member of the site team. 

“Emergency services attended and the casualty has been taken to hospital.  The HSE will be undertaking an investigation into the incident.â€

The former BBC Television Centre is being turned into homes, offices and new TV studios.
