Provincial police are reporting road closures after two crashes in the Kawartha Lakes area Sunday afternoon.

The OPP posted about two separate incidents through social media posts.

The first happened at around 1 p.m. in Janetville on Highway 35 near Fleetwood Road and Golf Course Road.

An OPP public information advisor (PIA) told CTV News that two cars were involved, and one person was airlifted by Ornge to a trauma centre with serious injuries.

Then, at around 1:30 p.m., the OPP reported that multiple multi-vehicle crashes happened on Glenarm Road between Fenel Road and Hartley Road in Woodville.

The OPP PIA told CTV News that four cars were involved and two were hospitalized for further assessment.

Police have yet to confirm whether driving conditions were a factor in the two crashes.

Both investigations are ongoing, and both areas have since reopened.
