Buses were diverted after the crash, which happened at 9.37am, while at least one woman was taken to Blackpool Victoria Hospital as a precaution, the ambulance service said.

The road reopened shortly before 11.30am, Blackpool Transport said.

Crashes on the road, though closer to Bispham, also happened on both Saturday and Sunday, with one teen badly hurt and airlifted to hospital.
