A motorcyclist has been hit by a car on the A420 on the outskirts of Chippenham.
The road is partially blocked at the junction to Allington village, close to Bumpers Farm Roundabout, after the rider was struck as the car pulled out of a side road.
Emergency services were first called to the scene at around 5pm today (3 November), with police officers being first to arrive at the road traffic collision.
A group of medics travelling in a non-emergency ambulance stopped at the crash to provide first aid to the injured male – believed to be in his 20s.
An emergency ambulance arrived at the incident shortly before 6pm, where they found their patient at the roadside unable to move his legs.
The patient is expected to be taken to hospital for further assessments and treatment; the extent of his injuries are currently unknown.
