A dramatic photo showed the Arriva vehicle off the road and in a ditch near Wem at around 5.15pm, however everyone on board was reported to be OK.

It's understood the bus, which was on route 511 to Whitchurch, was travelling between Weston Crossroads, with the A49, and Soulton Road when it came off the road.

A passer-by, Matt Price, was travelling home when he came across the stricken bus.
