A man has been taken to hospital after his car turned over in a crash which shut part of the A47 for more than three hours.

It happened close to the A146 slip road turn-off at Trowse, with the East Anglian Air Ambulance, firefighters from Carrow and Earlham, ambulance and police called to the scene.

Norfolk police said the car, which was the only vehicle involved in the crash, was on its roof and the man who was driving was the only person who had been in the vehicle.

The road was shut at 3.10am and did not re-open until 6.30am.
