An EMERGENCY road closure is in place in Wokingham due to a road traffic accident.

Thames Valley Police have closed Mole Road from Arborfield Cross to New Road and the Mill Lane Roundabout due to the incident.

Motorists are advised to avoid the area and seek alternative routes if possible.

A spokesman for South Central Ambulance Service said: "We received a 999 call at 3.16pm, with the caller reporting a two car collision on Mole Road near the junction with Wheatsheaf Close in Sindlesham.

"We sent a paramedic team leader in a rapid response vehicle and an ambulance to the scene.

"One of the drivers involved, a male, was complaining of neck and back pain so once he had been removed from the vehicle with the assistance of the fire service, he was taken to the Royal Berkshire Hospital for further assessment."
