Renewed call for safety works at Merlin Park after latest crash

There's a renewed call for something to be done at the entrance to Merlin Park Hospital, following the latest crash this morning.

The incident, involving a bus and a car, happened before 9am and had a severe impact on traffic.

The road was partially blocked during peak rush hour as emergency services attended the scene.

There are plans for traffic lights at the junction - but they're part of a major bus corridor project which could be several years away.
