A cyclist is in a serious condition after being thrown from his bike during a collision in Salford.

At around 7.10pm on Tuesday 11 September a black VW Passat was driving along Trafford Road when it collided with a cyclist at the junction with Broadway.

The cyclist, an 18-year-old man, was thrown from his bike and remains in hospital with multiple serious injuries.

The driver of the Passat remained at the scene to help officers with enquiries.

No arrests have been made.

PC Seamus Toal, from GMP’s Serious Collision Investigation Unit, said: “The cyclist suffered multiple serious injuries and his family are understandably upset. We hope he makes a full recovery and our thoughts remain with them.

“Anyone who witnessed the collision, or believes they saw the cyclist and the car beforehand, is urged to get in touch.

“I’d also ask drivers to check their dash-cams to see if they have any footage on the incident.”
