A female motorist was taken to hospital after she was involved with a collision with a truck.

A police spokesman said that officers and other first responders were called to Middle Road in Warwick near its junction with Cobbs Hill Road at about 11.45am.

Details were limited, but it is understood that the truck suffered mechanical issues as it approached the junction, where there was a collision with a car travelling in the westbound lane.

The female driver, who had to be extracted from the vehicle by fire service personnel, was the only person injured.

She was transported to King Edward VII Memorial Hospital for her injuries, the extent of which are unknown.

First responders managed traffic around the scene as the roadway was cleared.
