A BORDERS road was closed for two and a half hours after a two-vehicle collision on Monday afternoon.
The incident occurred on the A7 road in-between Selkirk to Galashiels at around 4.30pm.
Traffic was diverted around the area while officers attended the scene.
A Police Scotland spokesman told the Border Telegraph: "A Daewoo Kalos and Vauxhall Astra were involved in a head-on collision during the incident, which took place near to the Melrose Bypass at Glen Mains.
"The 29-year-old male driver of the Daewoo and 54-year-old male driver of the Vauxhall both sustained minor injuries and were taken to the Borders General Hospital for treatment.
"Inquiries into this collision are ongoing and anyone with information is asked to come forward and call 101, quoting reference number 2744 of August 14."
The road was reopened to traffic later that evening at 7.30pm.
