Whanganui emergency services were called to a two-car crash at the intersection of Virginia Rd and State Highway 3/Great North Rd this afternoon.

A police spokesperson said the incident occurred around 1.40pm.

“The crash was blocking the road initially; however, the vehicles have now been moved.”

A Hato Hone St John spokesperson said one ambulance attended and treated two people at the scene - one with minor injuries and one with moderate injuries.

Fire and Emergency New Zealand also attended.
