EMERGENCY services rushed to the scene of a horrific smash on a busy stretch of road this morning.
The police and paramedics were called to the A666 Bolton Road, near Ewood Park, following reports that a car had overturned after crashing into a set of traffic lights.
One person has been taken to hospital with a council spokesman stating the driver has sustained injuries to his head.
Part of the road has now re-opened, yet council officers remain at the scene.
A spokesman said: “We have opened the road in one direction. You can now proceed from Fernhurst towards Ewood. The road is still closed from the roundabout towards Fernhurst.”
