The A120 is closed in both directions following a crash.

Coggeshall Road remains closed with reports of long delays and queueing traffic, from the Stisted turn-off to A131 Marks Farm Roundabout.

Congestion is back to Stock street on Westbound, and the B1256 Notley Green Roundabout Eastbound.

A spokesperson for Essex Police has confirmed they were called just before 3.30pm to reports of a collision:

"Two vehicles were involved and thankfully, no-one was seriously injured.

"The road has been shut while we recover the vehicles, but is expected to reopen soon.

"Anyone with dash cam footage can submit a report online or use the 'Live Chat' button to speak to an online operator between 7am and 11pm.

"Please quote incident 713 of 4 May.

"You can also call us on 101 or contact Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111."

East of England Ambulance Service sent two ambulances, a rapid response vehicle and ambulance officer to the scene.

One patient was taken to Broomfield Hospital.
