Two cars collided on the A46 Evesham Bypass near Twyford on Tuesday (April 19) evening.

Two people travelling in one of the vehicles were treated for minor injuries before being discharged at the scene.

The crash came just a day after another collision, also on the A46.

On Monday (April 18) evening a 19-year-old motorcyclist was left with “potentially serious injuries” following a collision with a VW Golf.

The teenager was taken to a hospital in Birmingham for further treatment.

MP for West Worcestershire Harriett Baldwin has called for National Highways to do more to tackle the problem.

She said: “I repeat my calls on National Highways that it must do all it can to expedite measures to reduce speed and increase safety for road users.”
