Emergency services were called to the A540 Telegraph Road in Thurstaston at around 11.25am.

The driver of one vehicle was taken to hospital with slight injuries as a precaution.

The road was partially blocked for more than two hours following the incident, which took place between Church Lane (Thurstaston) and Oldfield Drive (Heswall), but has now fully re-opened.
