A Police spokesman said: “Police were called just before 3pm by the ambulance service reporting a collision on the A370 Bridgwater Road at East Brent.”
“Officers attended and supported fire and ambulance crews by closing the road.”
“One lane was reopened just before 4pm but a partial closure remained pending recovery of the vehicles.”
Eyewitnesses also said the Dorset and Somerset Air Ambulance also landed at the scene to help a patient. Several people were treated by paramedics at the scene.
