The collision happened at about 7 a.m. near the intersection of Route 9 and Juniper Hill Road.
Slippery pavement and about two inches of snow contributed to a head-on crash Friday morning that sent three men to hospitals and shut down a stretch of Route 9 for roughly an hour and a half, according to local officials.
The collision happened at about 7 a.m. near the intersection of Route 9 and Juniper Hill Road, where a Honda SUV traveling east struck a Honda sedan in the opposite lane, Stoddard Fire Chief Steve Rockwell said. He said both vehicles suffered extensive damage.
The SUV driver was transported by ambulance to Concord Hospital with what responders believed was a broken femur. The sedan’s driver was taken to Cheshire Medical Center with abdominal pain, and the passenger in that vehicle was also brought to Cheshire Medical Center after suffering facial lacerations, Rockwell said.
Rockwell said he did not have the names of those involved. He also said the wreck created a significant traffic backup on Route 9.
Along with the Stoddard Fire Department, three N.H. State Police troopers and a county sheriff responded to the scene. A State Police spokesperson said the crash remains under investigation and no additional details were available.
