**Andorran Emergency Services Handle Multiple Crashes and Incidents Across Parishes**

Emergency responders in Andorra addressed several traffic incidents and a medical emergency on Wednesday in La Massana and Andorra la Vella, including a three-vehicle collision near Sispony that injured one driver, a head-on taxi crash near Santa Coloma, a motorbike rider's collapse at Pyrénées Andorra, and two additional motorbike-related events. All sites have been cleared with no ongoing disruptions.

The first incident unfolded around 9:40am-9:45am on the CS-320 at kilometre 0.200 near Sispony, opposite a local hotel. Three Andorran-registered vehicles—a car, a tractor truck, and a van—collided. The 64-year-old Andorran driver of one van suffered injuries requiring hospital treatment, while the truck driver and the car's female driver escaped unharmed. Initial reports noted access difficulties and traffic backups during the response, which involved a firefighters' ambulance, a SUM medical unit, police accident specialists, a standard patrol, and La Massana traffic agents. Police continue investigating the low-severity crash, with the road now fully open.

In Andorra la Vella, shortly before 7pm on the CG-1 near Santa Coloma and Pont d'Enclar, an uphill car veered into oncoming traffic and hit a taxi head-on. Both locally plated vehicles sustained heavy front damage, with at least one occupant taken to hospital. Further injury details are unavailable.

Around 2pm at the Pyrénées Andorra car park exit on Carrer de les Canals, a motorbike rider suffered a general health episode, leading to a faint and fall. Responders—including firefighters with an ambulance, SUM medics, a police motorbike unit, traffic agents, and a patrol—diverted exiting vehicles along the street, causing temporary congestion but no full blockage. The rider's condition was non-serious, resolving as a scare.

A separate minor fire at a nearby building prompted firefighters to deploy a truck and support unit. They contained it quickly without injuries, smoke, or odours, allowing parking via an alternative entrance while investigating the cause.

Later, at 4:45pm on the CG-1 at kilometre 2.230 near Rotonda de Les Costes, an 18-year-old motorbike rider sustained injuries in a minor collision involving his bike, a truck, and a Ferrari, all Andorran-registered.

At midday on the road to La Comella at kilometre 3, a 32-year-old rider lost control in a solo crash, suffering light scratches. Police and firefighters attended, discharging him on site.
