Two fire engines from Dereham and one from Thetford were called and the crews released the casualties.
The A148 in west Norfolk was also shut this afternoon between Flitcham and Harpley, after two cars crashed.
One person was trapped and had to be released by fire crews, who were called shortly before 5pm.
