A motorcyclist seriously injured in a crash earlier this month is now recovering on a general ward.

The 23-year-old Smith’s man was seriously injured after the accident, which took place at 7pm on November 1 on Middle Road, in Southampton, near the junction with Lighthouse Road.

Immediately after the crash he was listed as being in a critical condition in the Intensive Care Unit.

However, at last check the man was continuing to recover and said to be in stable condition on a general ward at the hospital.

Inquiries are ongoing and any witnesses that have not already come forward should contact the investigating officer Constable Garwin Phillips at the main police telephone number 295-0011.
