A CAR and motorcycle crashed on the A40 at Cassington, causing delays.

The crash happened just before 4.30pm and slowed down eastbound traffic until about 6.45pm.

Tailbacks were stretching past Eynsham but have since cleared.

South Central Ambulance Service spokeswoman Michelle Archer said one patient was assessed for an ankle injury, and was taken to the minor injuries unit at Witney Community Hospital.
