Man taken to hospital after four-car crash in Fyshwick

A man in his 50s has been taken to hospital after a crash in Fyshwick that left four cars damaged on Wednesday morning.

Emergency services were called to Gladstone Street, near the roundabout that forms the intersection with Cessnock and Kembla streets, about 9.50am.

Police, paramedics and firefighters all attended the scene, where four cars - two white Volkswagens, a grey Kia and a grey BMW - all had visible damage.

All four vehicles were up on the footpath, but part of Gladstone Street was closed as emergency services worked at the scene shortly after 10am.

An Emergency Services Agency spokeswoman said ACT Ambulance officers assessed three patients at the scene and transported one, a man in his 50s, to hospital in a stable condition.

ACT Policing has been contacted for comment.
