Two fire engines and a heavy rescue vehicle were also called to assist. A fire service spokeswoman said that fire crews helped to clear the road and make the vehicles safe.
A police spokeswoman said: “We got a call at 11.30am reporting that there had been a collision between a car and a bus and that the bus had mounted the pavement and hit some scaffolding.
“A few windows were also smashed at the side of the bus.”
The bus was removed from the scene at around 12.45pm.
