A MAN has been taken to hospital after two cars collided at Middlebrook Retail Park this evening.

Traffic came to a standstill when a white Seat Leon and grey Toyota Aygo crashed in De Havilland Way during rush hour.

Police were called to the scene at 4.40pm where there was concern over the injuries of a 62-year-old driver in one of the vehicles.

An ambulance later took the man to hospital for treatment.

A section of the lane has been closed following the incident for more than an hour, causing disruption to traffic.
