Bike accident shuts M2 at Medway
Comments |
A collision between a motorbike and a car shut the M2 at
Medway for more than an hour last night.
The accident happened just before 5.20pm on Tuesday between
junction two for Strood and junction three for Chatham on the
coastbound side of the motorway.
Police shut all coastbound and London-bound lanes and the
junction two slip road so the Kent Air Ambulance could attend the
crash.
The motorcyclist was taken to a London hospital by land
ambulance and the road was fully reopened at 6.30pm.
The driver of the car was not seriously injured and was taken
home.
In a separate incident later on Tuesday at around 8.20pm police
were called to shut one lane of the M2 at the Grain junction so
fire crews from Strood and Thames-side could deal with a car
alight.
The fire had started in the car's engine and took around 20
minutes to put out. No one was hurt.
