The funeral of the building site worker who died in an accident at Marriotts Close, Witney, is being held today.

The development company, Simons Construction, is stopping work on the town centre site for the day as a mark of respect for 28-year-old Altin Balla.

Simons is laying on a minibus for fellow workers who worked with Mr Balla, an employee of sub-contractor Safety Net Services, to attend the funeral in west Wales, where Mr Balla lived.

The Health and Safety Executive is continuing its investigation into the accident which happened on Friday, August 29.
