South Norwood High Street has been closed in both directions following a car crash this morning.

A woman, believed to be in her 50s, suffered wrist injuries in the collision in Station Road around 10.30am.

London Ambulance Service sent a single responder in a car and an ambulance crew to the scene. 

Parademics took the woman to St George's Hospital for treatment. Her injuries are not thought to be serious. 

The collison and resulting road closure has worsened traffic problems caused by a leaking pipe in Portland Road, which remains shut for repairs.
