The busy A51 has been closed in both directions this afternoon after serious multi-vehicle accident.
It happened close to the Reaseheath roundabout around 1.30pm.
Cheshire fire crews, paramedics and police are at the scene as it’s believed one person was left trapped in their vehicle.
Cheshire Police said: “At 1.30pm today police were called to a collision on the A51, near to Reaseheath College.
Officers attended and found the collision involved a blue Kia Niro and a red Honda HR-v.
“There were no reports of any life-threatening injures, but one person was trapped in their car as a result of the collision.
“The road is currently closed while officers deal with the incident.
“Motorists are advised to avoid the area this afternoon with long queues and delays likely.”

Same speeding issues near Wardle. Speed limit signage totally ignored by some irresponsible drivers. Bunbury has numerous speed cameras, we cannot get one put erected, nor ‘smiley’ speed signs.
When will the Police start to deal with speeding on this stretch of the A51? The 30 mph limit here is ignored as is the 40mph limit a little further along the road.
The 85th percentile speed is way above 30mph so enforcement won’t take place.
