TWO people were taken to hospital in Ipswich this morning after what witnesses described as a head-on crash.

The accident happened at around 8am in Foxhall Road, close to the A12 roundabout.

A green VW Touran and a red Vauxhall Astra were involved in the collision.

Two people have been taken to Ipswich Hospital with “minor injuries” according to a Suffolk police spokesman.

He said officers received reports from a witness at the scene describing the head-on accident.

The road was closed in a westbound direction while the vehicles were recovered from the scene.

The road has now re-opened.
