Driver seriously injured in four-vehicle A34 crash

A major road has reopened after a driver was taken to hospital with serious injuries following a crash.

The A34 was closed in both directions near Chieveley Services, near Newbury, at about 11:00 BST after the crash on the northbound carriageway between a white van, a red car and two other vehicles.

The southbound carriageway reopened at about 13:30, and National Highways said shortly before 18:30 that all lanes in both directions were now open again.

Thames Valley Police said the car's driver was injured and appealed to anyone who saw the crash to contact officers.
