This is my brother's girlfriend and she's fine, saw her last night. Few bruises and cracked ribs but healing.
The rain made her brakes fail at the top of the hill and she hit a bus/lamppost. -

Well that's a relief. I thought that I might have heard more if there had been serious injuries, and I couldn't find anything else cited anywhere.
Hope she continues to heal well.

The councillor who tweeted apparently knocked on the back of the ambulance to offer his political services. Not sure where he got the 'mangled legs' bit from.
Seems there's a campaign to get a seperate cycle lane on DK hill, so at least this might help that.

Resurfacing the bus lane heading southbound would be a good and simple start.
Glad your brother's gf is okay and I wish her a speedy recovery.
I've only been able to trace one source for this one, but it sounds quite nasty - mangled legs are bad.

I think that https://twitter.com/StephenGovier/status/364427090545750016 may show the ambulance on the scene, but I don't know the roads there, so can't confirm it. Will hunt another source later.
Heal fast rider.
