A woman had to be cut free from her car following a collision between two vehicles on the A49 in Spurstow, Tarporley, this morning (October 21).

She and another person from the second vehicle were taken to Leighton Hospital by ambulance, after the incident which occurred at around 6.15am.

The A49 Nantwich Road reopened shortly after 9.30am after being closed in both directions, causing congestion between Red Fox Traffic Lights in Beeston and the A534 junction in Spurstow.

Cheshire Fire and Rescue Service crews from Tarporley and Nantwich attended the scene.
