Two cyclists were injured following a collision which also involved a car in Wickham Bishops yesterday (Wednesday, 8 September).

The crash took place at around 1.50pm on Witham Road.

A spokesperson for Essex Police said: "The cyclists - both men - were taken to hospital for treatment.

"Our enquiries are ongoing.

"If you saw anything or have any dashcam footage please contact us."

The accident led to the temporary road closure of Blue Mills Hill so that police could deal with the collision.

Eyewitnesses reported experiencing traffic delays for up to two hours following the crash.

They said that the traffic cleared at around 4pm, when only a police car remained on scene.
