Two women have been hurt after two cars crashed at lunchtime, blocking a busy Norwich road.

The Peugeot and Vauxhall Astra collided near the School Lane junction of Constitution Hill at about 12.30pm.

An ambulance service spokesman said one woman in her 60s and another believed to be 30 appeared to be suffering neck pain.

One fire crew from Earlham was sent to the scene, and was stood down at 1.14pm.

Police said they did not know when the road would reopen.
