Island Echo understands that the crash has occurred between Stag Lane and County Showground.
Resources from the Isle of Wight Ambulance Service and Hampshire Isle of Wight Constabulary are present to the scene.
It is believed that the road remains open
Southern Vectis buses are diverting via Forest Road, Whitehouse Road, Rolls Hill and Pallance Lane to return to route.
