A motorcyclist has been critically injured in a head-on crash on the Wiltshire border.

Emergency services were called to the A363 Sally in the Wood shortly before 5pm today (Friday) following repots of a two-vehicle road traffic collision.

Wiltshire Air Ambulance was among the many 999 crews attending the incident on the busy route between Bradford on Avon and Bathford/Batheaston.

The head-on crash occurred on a bend and involved a motorcycle and a Luton-style Renault van.
