Two people have sustained serious injuries in a road crash on the A30 in Cornwall, police say.

Officers said two vehicles were involved in the collision at Plusha Lewannick, Launceston, at about 12:40 BST.

The westbound carriageway had been closed and was "expected to remain so for some time" and drivers were advised to avoid the area, they added.

Police said: "This may have a knock-on effect for anyone travelling to Boardmasters to collect festivalgoers this evening. They are advised to allow extra time for their journey."
