POLICE were called to a crash involving a motorhome and three cars on the A31 this morning.

A call was made to Dorset Police at 8.57am with reports that the motorhome had hit the central reservation in the westbound direction close to the Little Chef restaurant near Poulner Hill.

A spokesperson for the police said that the vehicles reported to have been involved included a white Fiat Ducato registered to a man from Poole, a blue Vauxhall Corsa registered to a woman from Ringwood and a white Ford Transit registered to a company from Christchurch.

The road was blocked in both directions but was cleared both ways by 9.26am after the motorhome was moved into a nearby layby.

No people are believed to have been injured as a result of the crash.
