Police are appealing for information after a motorcyclist was seriously injured in a collision on the outskirts of Flamstead.
The crash took place at around 3pm yesterday (Tuesday, June 12), at the roundabout junction with the A5 and Watery Lane.
The motorcyclist, a man in his 30s, was riding a white and blue Suzuki GSX R-1000 which was in a collision with a white Kia Sportage.
He suffered serious injuries, and the roundabout was closed to traffic to allow emergency services to attend to him.
Helimed air ambulance services arrived at the scene and the motorcyclist was transported to hospital, where he is in a critical but stable condition.

PC Jason Brownlie-Parker, from the Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire and Hertfordshire Road Policing Unit, said: “This collision happened at a busy junction during the day so there would have been plenty of motorists in the area.
