A motorbike and a car crashed this morning in Bexleyheath causing queues and bus diversions.

The collision happened just before 9am in Brampton Road at the junction with Lessness Avenue.

A spokesman for the Metropolitan Police said: “It was a collision between a motorcyclist and a motor vehicle.

“The London Ambulance Service attended and the injuries to the motorcyclist are not considered to be life threatening or life changing.”

The spokesman said it is thought the rider is in his late teens or early twenties.

Traffic has since returned to normal.
