By Martin Booth  Friday Aug 30, 2024

An e-scooter rider in his 50s has been taken to hospital after a serious collision in south Bristol.

The collision happened at around 3.30pm on Friday on Coronation Road close to Gaol Ferry Bridge.

A police cordon was still in place close to the bridge at 6pm with number evidence markers on the floor, including next to an e-scooter on its side at the top of the path that once led down to the ferry across the New Cut.
