More than 20 students have had a lucky escape after their journey to school this morning took a terrifying twist.
The St Mary's College students were not far from school when their Coachways bus crashed on a motorway overbridge through a railing, leaving the front part of the bus teetering over the bridge.
One person was taken to hospital and the students were checked over by St John Ambulance staff as the inner city was brought to a standstill.
St Mary's College Principal Sarah Dwan has told parents in the weekly newsletter this afternoon that whilst she visited the scene of the accident this morning, it wasn't until she watched footage of the crash on social media she realised the severity of the situation.
She says it is fortunate no students were injured.
