Frustrated Ormskirk and Aughton drivers were caught up in traffic chaos at lunchtime today after a three car crash blocked the A59 junction with Broom's Cross Road.

A Merseyside Police PR officer confirmed that no one was badly hurt in the incident which involved a VW Golf, Renault Captur and Mercedes C220 at 11.58.



The scene was cleared by around 1pm; it took around half an hour from exiting the Aintree Asda car park to get clear of the busy accident scene.
