A police spokesperson said: "We are appealing for anyone who travelled along the A55 between 4.50 am and 5.10 am, between St Asaph and Abergele on the westbound or eastbound carriageway, and who has dashcam footage, or who saw a pedestrian on the carriageway to contact us via our live webchat online or on 101 quoting ref C053155.
"Finally, we would remind our online readers that this is still a live investigation. Please do not speculate within the comments, as this may be deemed prejudicial to any potential Court proceedings, and we would also ask that you respect the victim’s family at this difficult time."
