A biker has been airlifted to hospital after a serious crash on the A338 in Wiltshire.
Wiltshire and Bath Air Ambulance was scrambled to a single-vehicle road traffic collision in Marten, three miles east of Burgage, at around 11.15am today (Thursday).
A motorcycle was involved in the incident at the junction for Fair Mile, with a biker sustaining serious injuries.
Critical care medics worked alongside ambulance crews to treat the casualty, a man, before airlifting him to John Radcliffe Hospital in Oxford for urgent care.
The road was partially blocked for a number of hours while emergency services worked at the scene and subsequently recovered the damaged motorbike from the road.
Wiltshire Police confirmed that the biker sustained “serious injuries which are not currently thought to be life-changing”.
A spokesperson for the South Western Ambulance Service NHS Foundation Trust added that a double-crewed ambulance, an air ambulance, a critical care car and an operations officer were sent to the crash.
