Police are appealing for witnesses and footage after a motorcyclist was left seriously injured in a crash.

Officers were called to the A59 between the A671 Accrington Road and Holm Road, near Barrow, just after 8am yesterday (September 14).

The rider of a Honda CBR 1100, in his 60s, came off his bike and was in the carriageway.

A road closure was in place for several hours throughout Saturday, with the closure being lifted just after 3pm.

The rider was taken to hospital in a serious but stable condition.

Police say work is ongoing to establish how he came off his motorcycle.

A police spokesperson said: "We know that some people stopped at the scene to check on the rider. If that was you, we would ask that you contact the police if you have not already done so."

Anyone with information or dashcam footage should email 3909@lancashire.police.uk or call 101 quoting log 311 of September 14.
