No one is thought to be seriously hurt in the crash.

Delays were reported back to North Road and also back to the Black Bull crossroads in Fulwood – as the crash added to already heavy congestion in Fulwood which had been building since before 4pm on Friday.

Roadworks have now begun near Royal Preston Hospital for overnight resurfacing work which sees Sharoe Green Lane closed.
