A crash involving a private hire car and a minibus happened around 9.30 on Saturday morning.
A local said they heard an enormous bang at that time, and that they believed one of the drivers had been making a U-turn. By 10.30 emergency services were on the scene and the road was reduced to single file traffic.
A Police Scotland spokesperson said: “We were called around 9.30am on Saturday, 30 March, to a report of a crash involving a car and a minibus on St Johns Road in Edinburgh.
“Emergency services attended and several people were taken to hospital with minor injuries.
“The road was closed for recovery and partially re-opened around 10.40am. Road users are thanked for their patience.”
