Police were called to the scene on Kelston Road following the crash at around 8.15am, after a double-decker bus sustained a number of damaged windows after hitting a tree branch.

A number of children who were sat on the top deck sustained minor injuries, and their parents have been notified.

Police say the ambulance service was not required to attend the scene.

Officers are carrying out enquiries into the incident to understand the circumstances and establish if any other vehicle was involved.

Anyone with information is asked to contact Avon & Somerset Police online or call 101 and quote log number 191 of 7th May.
