Emergency crews were called at around 4.06pm to attend the multiple vehicle collision on the south bound carriageway between Bletchingdon and the Peartree interchange, north of Oxford.

Traffic was brought to a standstill for almost an hour while emergency services attended the incident.

No one was seriously hurt, but one person had to be treated at the scene for minor injuries.

Traffic was backed-up as far as Kidlington while the scene was cleared.
