A passer-by filmed the dramatic scenes that appear to show one of the vehicles having collided with the service X18 West Lothian bus, with the drivers of several cars speaking with officers.
Traffic was blocked from travelling towards Heartlands during the incident, with an eye witness reporting just one police van currently at the scene alongside a car with the front severely smashed up.
A post in a local Facebook group shortly after the incident alerted motorists to avoid the area as there was temporarily no access to Heartlands from Junction 4A of the M8.
The road appears to have re-opened to traffic, although it is currently unclear what caused the accident or if there have been any reported injuries.
Police Scotland was approached for comment.
