One person was taken to hospital after a two-vehicle collision on a major Pembrokeshire roundabout yesterday afternoon.
The car crash happened by the Merlins Bridge roundabout in Haverfordwest, near McDonald’s, on Thursday, May 26.
Emergency services attended, including Dyfed-Powys Police and the Welsh Ambulance Service.
The incident caused heavy traffic delays across Haverfordwest, including on both lanes of the Freemans Way bypass from the roundabout to Salutation Square, and on Pembroke Road, which was closed by police officers.
Meanwhile, traffic avoiding the congestions diverted onto Clay Lane, which caused large backups there.
After approximately an hour and a half of delayed traffic, the road was reopened with traffic returning to normal shortly after 4pm.
