A MAJOR Portsmouth road was closed after a pedestrian was hit by a car.

The Eastern Road was shut both ways after the accident but is now open.

The closure was between Airport Service Road to the north and Tangier Road to the south, and it is thought the collision happened near the Burrfields Road junction.

Police asked drivers to avoid the area while emergency services are working.
