A woman had to be cut out of her car after crashing into the width restriction in Woodmere Avenue.
Police closed off the road in north Watford at around 11.21am after the red Renault Cleo became wedged in the restriction, which has three bollards on either side.
A fire crew from Potters Bar was also called and had to cut the car’s roof off with hydraulic tools to free the 24-year-old driver.
After she was freed the motorist was treated by paramedics for minor injuries.
Ambulance service spokesman Gary Sanderson said: "A woman has been treated, stabilised and immobilised taken to Watford General Hospital with slight injuries."
The road was reopened at 12.50pm.
