Collision causes rush-hour delays

Drivers and passengers escaped unscathed after a three-car collision in Wigan.

Rush hour traffic was disrupted on Thursday morning when there was the crash between a Peugeot, Vauxhall Vectra and BMW at Wigan Lane’s junction with Milton Grove shortly after 8am.

Emergency services were called after it was reported that minor injuries had been sustained but a traffic officer reported back that all the occupants were “fine,” a police spokeswoman said.

Wigan Council staff were called to clear up debris.
