THE A34 northbound is likely to remain closed for another three hours following a crash between two lorries.

The two lorries collided near the Milton interchange just before 12pm today.

Photographs show the cab of one of the trucks badly crumpled around the rear of the other.

An ambulance service spokesman said two people had been taken to the John Radcliffe Hospital in Oxford. One had head injuries, but the spokesman did know how severe the injuries were.

One of the lorries was carrying beer and that has spilled across both lanes.

Drivers are urged to avoid the area.
