A two car crash resulted in minor injuries and the part closure of a busy city centre road.

Cars collided on Thomas Lewis Way in an incident reported to Hampshire police at 11am.

Cones were put in place on the north-east bound carriageway as traffic was diverted into junctions turning off of the road.

Police and ambulance emergency services attended, reporting minor injuries in the crash.

Posts on Facebook in St Denys community groups warned drivers to stay away from the road as "traffic was building up".

Another user on Facebook said the damage to the vehicles looked "really bad" as they came past it.

The southbound carriageway was flowing normally by 1.10pm as cones blocked off the other lane, and Thomas Lewis Way was fully reopened by 1.30pm.

A Hampshire police statement issued to the Echo at 2.30pm said: "This was reported at 11am and involved two cars.

"There were minor injuries and the road is open."
