PART of the A30 closed this morning due to a serious collision has reopemed.

The collision occurred on the eastbound carriageway just past The Hatch pub, near Old Basing, and with two teenagers, both 18-year-old women, being killed.

As a result, the road had been closed between the junctions with Greywell Road and Andwell Lane to allow emergency services to deal with the incident with diversions put in place.

But the eastbound carriageway has now reopened.
