TWO boys have been taken to hospital after their school minibus was involved in a four-vehicle accident this morning.
The Ford Transit van was taking pupils to Durlston Court School in Barton-on-Sea when the accident occurred on the main Lymington to New Milton road.
Head teacher David Wansey said two 11-year-old pupils suffering from neck pains were taken to Southampton General Hospital as a precaution.
The accident also involved a VW Golf, a Toyota Rav 4 and a Renault.
Police said an 82-year-old woman complained of back pain after the crash, at the junction of Lymington Road and Lower Ashley Road.
Long tailbacks built up as police investigated the accident and waited for the damaged vehicles to be recovered.
