Somerset bus crash: Double decker bus overturns with passengers injured in major incident

A double decker bus has overturned with several passengers left injured. A major incident has been declared after the vehicle, which was reportedly carrying 70 staff from Hinkley Point nuclear power plant, crashed.

Emergency services raced to the incident on the A39 Quantock Road, near Bridgwater, Somerset, this morning, with people reportedly still trapped inside the turn over bus, reports the Mirror. A "significant number" of police, fire and ambulance crews - including the air ambulance - are at the scene.

Mercy crews are attempting to release those still trapped on the bus and treating the injured workers already rescued. It is believed that the bus swerved to avoid a motorbike.
