A man has been taken to hospital after his car crashed and flipped over on a busy dual carriageway.

The blue Fiat Punto was understood to have been heading Sittingbourne-bound, between the former Three Squirrels and the Stockbury roundabout, when the accident happened just after 1pm today.

Police closed the road in both directions for the air ambulance to land and the road has since reopened.

The man, aged in his 30s, was treated for back and neck pain before being taken to Medway Maritime Hospital in Gillingham by road.

A police spokesman said his injuries were believed to have been non life-threatening.
