Three people were taken to hospital Thursday morning following a three-vehicle crash south of Stratford.

The crash occurred just before 9 a.m. at Highway 7 and Perth Line 20.

According to Perth County OPP, a tractor-trailer heading southbound on Highway 7 collided with a Subaru passenger vehicle travelling eastbound on Line 20.

The transport truck then jack-knifed and left the road, hitting a hydro pole and a Ford sedan.

Two people from the Subaru and one from the Ford were taken to hospital with injuries described as not life-threatening.

Hydro One crews were called in to repair the downed hydro wires, prompting a closure of the intersection that lasted until 4 p.m.

OPP continue to investigate the cause of the crash.
