seaforth 200
A MULTIPLE car crash on the busy Seaforth flyover caused major backlogs for traffic heading towards Crosby during yesterday afternoon’s rush hour
Police said five people received minor injuries in the accident, which involved four vehicles on the north-bound carriageway of the flyover.
All three emergency services were called to the accident, which happened shortly after 5pm.
Firefighters helped the ambulance crew release one woman from her vehicle. She was taken to Aintree hospital, along with a male driver from another car. Both had hip, leg, or back injuries.
Three other men were slightly injured but did not need hospital treatment. An eye-witness said last night: “The traffic backlog was absolutely horrendous. It looked as if the cars may have hit the central reservation on the flyover.”
The road was cleared by about 7.30pm.
