Three people trapped

The crash scene at Budgewoi

Three people were taken to hospital following a two-vehicle collision along Scenic Dve, Budgewoi, on Saturday, August 8.

Rescue crews and emergency services were called to the location outside the shopping centre and fire station just after 11am.

One person was trapped in one of the vehicles and two people were trapped in the other vehicle.

Scenic Dve was closed and traffic detours were put in place while rescue crews from the Budgewoi Fire and Rescue NSW station worked in conjunction with NSW Ambulance paramedics to extricate the three people.

Just before midday the Westpac Rescue Helicopter was called to transport one person to John Hunter Hospital following treatment on the scene by local paramedics.

The other two people were taken to hospital by road ambulance and all were reported to be in a stable condition.
