A driver was taken to hospital after a car collided with a pole in Stalybridge.

Greater Manchester Police said they were called to The Arcade shortly before 7am on Monday morning (1 August) to reports of a road traffic accident.

Firefighters freed a woman from the car and she was taken to hospital with a neck injury, which is not thought to be life threatening.

It is believed that there wasn’t another vehicle or party involved, a GMP spokesperson has said.

Diversions were put in place whilst the vehicle was recovered. High Street was closed close to the junction with Hollins Street until around 10am.
