Three children have been injured when a school bus crashed into a railway bridge, police have said.

Gwent Police said it received a report of a collision in Tregare Street, Newport, at about 07:45 BST on Tuesday.

The pupils' injuries are not thought to be life-threatening, the force said, but the children have been taken to hospital for treatment.

Transport for Wales said delays to train services were expected to last until about 11:00, with some services cancelled in both directions between Newport and Hereford.

Newport council confirmed the bus was a service for Ysgol Gyfun Gwent Is Coed, a Welsh‑medium secondary school on Duffryn Way, Newport.

The council said it was working closely with emergency service colleagues and its priority was "ensuring the well-being of those involved in the collision".
