Four hurt in Umhlanga bridge crash
Four people have been hurt in a crash on the M41 near the Millennium Bridge in Umhlanga Ridge north of Durban.
Emergency services say two vehicles were involved in the crash.
Netcare911's Chris Botha says one of the vehicles slammed into concrete barriers.
''The driver of the one car was found trapped in the wreckage of his car and it took firemen about an hour, using the Jaws of Life, to free the him from the wreckage.
''They have now extricated the patient and stabilised him. He has been transported through to a nearby hospital for further care,'' he said.
Meanwhile, Durban Metro Police say they will be keeping a closer eye on traffic flow on the bridge during the afternoon peak hour traffic.
