An ambulance flipped over after a crash involving two cars which partially closed a busy road in Mottram for several hours on Sunday morning (12 March).

No injuries were reported from the collision, which happened at around 8am on Mottram Moor - near the junction with Stalybridge Road and Market Street. 

Emergency services rushed to the scene, with the police, fire service and paramedics witnessed at the scene.

The incident led to long delays in the area and the road didn't reopen fully until around midday.
