POLICE have re-opened the Red Roses bypass after four people were taken to hospital following a serious crash this morning.
The collision happened just before 8am, on the A477 between St Clears and Llanteg.
Two vehicles were involved in the collision, a silver Mitsubishi Colt, and a white Vauxhall Vivero Van.
Two people, in the Mitsubishi, have been taken to hospital via air ambulance with what are described as serious injuries.
The two passengers in the Vauxhall have been taken to hospital by ambulance.
A Welsh Ambulance Service spokesperson said: “We were called at 7.57am this morning to reports of a road traffic collision on the A477 between St Clears and Llanteg.
“We sent three emergency ambulances and an ambulance officer to the scene, who were supported by two Wales Air Ambulances and doctors from the Emergency Medical Retrieval and Transfer Service.
“Two people were airlifted to hospital with serious injuries; a woman to Cardiff’s University Hospital of Wales and a man to Swansea’s Morriston Hospital, and two ‘walking wounded’ patients were taken by land ambulance to Glangwili General Hospital.”
Traffic between Pembroke Dock and Carmarthen was affected, and the road was closed until lunchtime.
Anyone who witnessed the collision is asked to contact Police on 101.
