Escort Way in Orange reopens after vehicles collide

The Escort Way has been reopened following a crash involving two vehicles on Wednesday morning.

Two people have been transferred to Orange Hospital with injuries that are not believed to be serious.

Police and ambulance officers attended the scene.

Acting inspector Luke Cole said a HiLux utility towing a flatbed trailer was heading west on Escort Way when the driver "lost control of the trailer and moved into the eastbound lane, where the trailer collided with the front of a silver Toyota".

"The trailer then flipped onto its side."

Acting inspector Cole said there were two witnesses to the crash.

Police haven't yet had a chance to interview the drivers.

"It's too early at this stage to say what caused the accident," he said.
