An oil leak from a tanker has led to a three-vehicle collision, causing a main road to be shut.
Avon and Somerset Police said three people were injured in the crash, which happened on the A37 near Chelwood at about 08:00 BST.
The road is closed between the A37 junction with the B3130 and the turn off for Birchwood Lane so the spill can be cleaned up.
Police say drivers should avoid the area, or follow marked diversions.
