Photos of A38 crash released by emergency services

This was the scene of a nasty crash that partially blocked the main road into Bristol from the north earlier today.

A pensioner was taken to hospital after the car he was travelling in was involved in a collision with another car on the A38 at the entrance to Almondsbury, near Bristol.

All three emergency services attended , which happened just after 12.15pm on Tuesday at the junction of the A38 with Woodhouse Avenue on the northern end of Almondsbury.

Paramedics treated one male casualty in his 70s at the scene, before taking him to hospital, while thankfully the other people in the two cars were unhurt.

Fire crews were able to distribute two ‘trauma teddies’ to two children involved in the incident.

The teddies have been knitted by various Townswomen’s Guilds across Bristol, and the ones distributed by firefighters from Southmead had been donated by Fishponds Townswomen’s Guild.
