Seventeen people have been taken to hospital after a crash involving two double-decker buses in Manchester.
It happened near the junction of Rochdale Road and Livesey Street, on the edge of the city centre, at 8:34 am.
Nine ambulances, an air ambulance, two response vehicles and an advanced paramedic were sent to the scene.
North West Ambulance Service said 17 injured people were taken to hospitals around Manchester but no one was seriously hurt.
Pictures show the front of one bus badly mangled and the glass smashed.
A witness told the Manchester Evening News they collided, with one going through a metal fence.
The paper said passengers climbed out of the wreckage but one person had to be rescued from the upper deck by fire crews.
Stephen Rhodes, Transport for Greater Manchester's bus director, wished injured passengers a "speedy recovery" and said it involved two Bee Network buses.
Rochdale Road has now reopened but officials said there could be lingering delays.
