A crash hotspot in Folkestone has been closed again after another smash this afternoon.

A man was taken to hospital with minor injuries following the incident on Tram Road at lunchtime involving a car and a lorry.

The road was closed for just over an hour and a half in both directions near the junction with Warren Road and Southern Way at the northern end of the street after the crash involving a Volkswagen Bora and tipper truck.

But the road reopened at 2.30pm with delays in the area slowly clearing away.

A police spokesman said: "Kent Police was called at 12.51pm following a road traffic collision on Tram Road, Folkestone, involving a Volkswagen Bora and a tipper truck.

"One man was taken to hospital with minor injuries and the road was reopened by 2.30pm."

It is another crash on the road which became a two-way street rather than one-way in May.

Just weeks after the changes were introduced there were two crashes in the space of five days on the street but neither were serious.
