Traffic was "gridlocked" after a three car crash closed a major road for two hours.
Merseyside Police received a 999 call at around 3.54pm on Tuesday, November 22, following reports of a crash on the Formby Bypass, at the junction of North End Lane. Once police arrived at the scene, they found three cars, a BMW, Peugeot and VW Tiguan, had crashed.
Officers requested help from Merseyside Fire and Rescue Service and the North West Ambulance Service before closing Formby Bypass in both directions. Once fire crews arrived at the scene at 4.03pm they found all three vehicles on all four wheels and all occupants "conscious and breathing".
