By Emily Wells Fri, 31 August 2012 6:39AM

Four people have been taken to hospital after a three car collision near Whitley Bank.

Emergency services were called to the scene on Shanklin Road at 20.42 last night.

One casualty had to be cut free from their vehicle by Isle of Wight Fire Rescue while three others were injured in the three car crash.

Police closed the road last night and it remains closed this morning due to oil and debris on the road.

Shanklin Road is expected to re-open in the next few hours after highways have given  the area the all clear.

**Update 07.11am Shanklin Road has now re-opened**
