A single car collision on Somme Parade just before 7pm last night caused traffic to be temporarily rerouted.

A Police spokesperson said it looked as if the car had flipped.

"Fire and Emergency services were there briefly, as the person was trapped in the car.

The driver was the only person in the vehicle and was able to be removed.

"There are no reports of any injuries, which is great."
