A CRASH closed part of Dorcan Way this morning.

One person had to be freed from a car on its side by firefighters using hydraulic cutting equipment.

Two cars, a blue VW Gold and a black Vauxhall Astra, were involved with police being called just after 6am.

It is thought that those in the cars only suffered minor injuries.

Thamesdown Transport's 2 service was unable to serve Greenbridge Road in both directions for a time but it was reported to be running again by 7.15am and the road was clear by 7.45am.
