Rushall resident Marie-Ann Lee, aged 36, said: "I was sitting in the traffic for a while while they were opening the road. I didn't actually see any ambulances so I don't know how bad it was really.
"I hope everyone's all right though. It's a bad road."
Darren Wilkes, aged 48, of Pelsall, said: "I was coming to get breakfast and it was blocked then, that was at about 7.30, around that time.
"There was police and ambulance here, it looked bad really, but I didn't see anyone taken away. It's a bit of a bad road to be honest."
A spokesperson for West Midlands Ambulance service said: "We were called to reports of an RTC on Lichfield Road in Rushall, Walsall at 7.05am and sent three ambulances to the scene.
"On arrival, crews found a car and a van had been involved in a collision. The driver of the car, a woman, was treated for injuries not believed to be serious and conveyed to Walsall Manor Hospital.
"The van driver, a man, was treated for minor injuries and discharged at the scene."
