A woman has been treated for shock following a road crash in Rainham village just off the A13 which blocked the road.

Two cars were in collision on the A1306 at Rainham Road South at around 4pm (June 1) which caused a traffic snarl-up before the damaged vehicles could be cleared.

"There was damage to both vehicles," a police spokesman said. "But no-one was injured, just a woman treated for shock."

The collision was at the beginning of a dual-carriageway, with one of the vehicles ending up on the other side of the road.
