Officers investigating the circumstances surrounding his death believe a white and black Fiat Ducato van, travelling westwards from Sheriffhall Roundabout, was involved in a collision and that this van was then overtaken by two HGVs before the Straiton junction.
They are urging the drivers of the two HGVs, or anyone who saw a white and black Fiat Ducato van travelling in the area at around 1am, to contact police.
