Drivers face delays as the road through Holt is blocked following an accident that sparked a car fire.

Holt Road is blocked after a crash at Burt's Lane, between Wimborne and Three Legged Cross.

The collision between a blue Vauxhall Corsa and a Citroen Dispatch van happened near the Cross Keys Pub at around 7am.

Firefighters found a car 'well alight' and put out the flames using one hose reel jet by 7.30am.

Paramedics have taken the van driver, who sustained 'slight' injuries to Poole Hospital, a police spokesman said.

Both vehicles have been recovered and oil has been cleared from the road.
