Two people have been taken to hospital after a multi-vehicle accident on the A23 northbound at Hookwood near Horley.
The carriageway has been closed following the accident, which happened at around 3:45pm today (Tuesday October 23) between Gatwick Way and the Longbridge roundabout.
A woman in her 50s suffering neck pain was taken by ambulance to East Surrey Hospital.
A man in his 30s suffering from back pain was also taken to the Redhill hospital by ambulance.
Three ambulances and paramedics travelling in cars attended the scene.
A spokesman for South East Coast Ambulance Service said: “Both patients were taken to hospital as a priority because of the nature of the incident. Both were fully conscious and the man in his 30s was able to get out of his vehicle himself.”
