Today Merseyside Police confirmed three people who were taken to hospital after the crash suffered only minor injuries.
The spokesman added that the section of road reopened at around 3.45pm.
A witness at the scene said the crash appeared to happen as one vehicle was waiting to turn right into Rockbourne Avenue.
Another woman who lives nearby said: "I first became aware when I saw a lot of emergency vehicles on the road. There were blue lights everywhere.
"It was quite a shock seeing them all there. There must have been around five to six ambulances, and a fire service search and rescue vehicle as well as fire engines.
"The road was blocked for a good couple of hours. I just hope everyone's going to be okay."
