A collision on the N2 highway just past the Vanguard off ramp left five people injured this morning.

At this stage it is not known what caused the collision but it involved a total of nine passenger vehicles a minibus taxi and a large truck and trailer.

Earlier reports from the scene showed that the truck had jackknifed causing an obstruction on the busy highway.

Multiple emergency Medical Services were at the scene and a total of five people involved in the collision received treatment for injuries ranging from scrapes and bruises to suspected back and neck injuries.

The N2 highway inbound was later closed for traffic, as the busy morning traffic needed to be rerouted onto vanguard drive.
