EMERGENCY services were called to a road traffic collision in Swallowfield last week.
The incident took place on Basingstoke Road during morning rush hour – 8.15am on Wednesday, November 8.
It involved a car and a heavy good vehicle.
Royal Berkshire Fire and Rescue Service sent crews from four stations: Caversham Road, Wokingham Road, Whitley Wood and Theale Fire Stations.
